Opening talk of the trekking retreat. Investigating identity, personality, committee of mind, negativity bias, and the power of nature, perception, and attending to neutral and positive phenomena in shaping experience.

The middle way between extremes.

A broad talk: The comparing mind; Working with the inner critic with skill and care; Inquiry of scale when we question how we measure up; In moments of calm we can open further into the emptiness of all things; using the inquiry of refutation: Neither One Nor Many.
