The perils of seeing ourselves as separate. A conversation inspired by a Rumi poem, with Justin Wise and Lizzie Winn of Thirdspace.
\n
\nIn this conversation we consider together the perils of seeing ourselves as separate \u2013 from one another and from life \u2013 and how our mistaken sense of separateness leads so easily to fear and isolation from the deep sources of relationship, love and courage that are available to us all. Along the way we consider what it is to be in a long-term relationship or marriage, we talk about words for the \u2018source of everything\u2019 that can constrain or liberate our aliveness, we explore the politics of division that\u2019s arising in so many places in the world, we chat about the joys of wild swimming, and we remind ourselves of what becomes possible when we look into the eyes of another \u2013 even one very different from ourselves \u2013 and remember the shared beauty that\u2019s there and that gives rise to each of us.
