Two Truths, One Nervous System: Why You Keep Getting in Your Own Way and How Orientation Unlocks Ease
With Bassam Younes
Most of us were conditioned inside a survival‑based, scientific worldview: cause and effect, effort and reward, time, improvement. At some point we meet contemplative teachings that pivot our path. But instead of truly upgrading our worldview, we unknowingly stack the new on top of the old. The result is suffering.
In this live session we’ll explore the rarely talked‑about phenomenon of Two Truths, One Nervous System, and how many of us are living inside two mutually exclusive operating systems without realising it—experiencing inner conflict, fatigue, confusion, even depression. We’ll look at how your nervous system tries to reconcile these “two truths,” and how pushing harder or “doing more” often makes things worse.
We’ll also explore a different possibility – one that doesn’t demand more effort, but a simple process of orientation. This may be the missing piece you’ve been searching for.
