Six connected essays

From inquiry
to observation.

Begin with the questions behind the journal, then examine suffering, the person we call “I,” habit, attentive observation, and knowing oneself without thought.

Further essays will explore Sankhya and Yoga in greater detail. They will be added gradually as the inquiry develops.
