2. Really truly pull hard on your brain’s neural networks and consider whether you can resist tribalism no matter what your tribe’s intentions are, no matter how caring, compassionate, and full of mercy your ideas are. Everything can become an ideology if pushed too far, or gone too long without deliberate consideration and revised updates; habits become blinders. Or worse, a prison with invisible walls:

The architecture of society-as-we-know-it, and the modern individual that populates it, depends on insulating contradictory beliefs from each other. What happens when we allow them to collide?

We gain thereby a certain temporary stability, a false sense of permanence—at the cost of being trapped within the reality-bubble we have created.

4. The truth of your identity might also be an illusion. In & Of Itslef is a stage act that you can watch as a film; it was one of my more profound viewing experiences of recent years. Watch as disillusionment morphs into magic which morphs, miraculously into Grace.
