About this episode
This episode explores two fundamental Buddhist psychological concepts—emptiness and identity confusion. While most clinicians think emptiness is ‘feeling empty’, it is actually a profound doorway to radically understand self and world as it truly is. Surprisingly, the Buddha had a lot to say about identity and identity confusion and often pointed out how human minds fixate on identity in ways that largely serve to separate us from each other.
