In this episode, we embark on an exploration of Self-Awareness. At its essence, Self-Awareness is the core of who we are. This Awareness is the most potent force in existence, forming the foundation of reality itself, embracing everything—living or non-living—within the universe. It is the substratum of everything in the universe.

By deeply understanding Awareness and its inherent capabilities, we unlock the key to comprehending the universe as a whole. Grasping the true nature of Awareness is not just important—it is absolutely vital.
