Beautifully said, yeah. So those four pillars being impermanence, interdependence, agency, and balance. I think we have, and I know you and your podcast and other conversations I have, really explored at depth more of the nuance of each of those categories of how we're out of balance with the evolutionary mismatch.

I am personally kind of like, it's so important to have that as a foundation and build those habits and routines that, you know, that build that. And for me, I'm also just very interested in kind of those first two pillars, you know, and the impermanence and interdependence and the recognition of that and putting that into practice in daily life.

And through my meditation practices and this meditation retreat I just got back from last month, there is a beautiful amount of freedom, of equanimity, recognition of that balance and homeostasis when you are holding things so loosely because you see how constantly they are changing. And you can look at it from the biological level like you did, but then also getting into the physics of it.

you know, from the Buddhist, I suppose, scientific, but less kind of modern scientific lens, describing it as a kalapa, which are the smallest particles arising and passing away, like the smallest perceivable possible, like you can't even perceive it, which is why we have this illusion of continuity within our experience.

You know, we navigate this world as though we are the solid self moving through time and space. And yet that's actually not the case.

I agree. Yeah, well said, man. I feel that so much of... the tension that we build is kind of self-wound in life and it stems solely fundamentally in the tightly held identity and misidentification with who we think we are kind of really strongly feeling as though we are our thoughts and emotions and you know it's like
