Self-Illusion / First Fetter
Texts and dialogues about seeing through the illusion of self – stream-entry, the first step on the path to awakening.
When a Thought Feels True
A thought suddenly feels true.
Not because of what it says –
but because it is believed.
What happens when you look exactly there?
The Self – the First Fetter
Is there really a self – or is it only assumed?
The first Buddhist fetter is the belief in an “I”.

When Fear Appears
You want to look – and suddenly there’s fear. Or resistance. Or the feeling that you can’t do this.
This isn’t a mistake. This is already part of the inquiry.
Everything belongs
Guilt, fear, confusion, tiredness, tears, the wish to get it right – all of it belongs. Nothing is wrong.
