Dr. Alok Kanojia

We all have this intuitive sense of identity, but in the same way that

logic and emotions interact in a very mechanistic and defined way.

In the West, our model does not include this piece.

And the roadmap that you're talking about has to do with that piece.

So if the rest of the world, because things get complicated, right?

That's why it's so exciting for you and so challenging.

Things get complicated because everyone wants you to be something.

And then we make a big mistake because we do this thing called internalize.

And the moment that you internalize, now is it coming from the outside or is it coming from you?

Is this something that I've been conditioned to want or is it something that I truly want?

Which then begs the question, what the hell is truly want?

Is there a difference between want from over here and want from over there?

And the yogis will say that the answer is yes.

So once you understand the ego, and the ego functions in a couple of ways, if I ask you, Andrew, who are you?

What would you say?

Okay.

Is that it?

Okay.

Right.
