Well Being with Don Oakley

Trailer - Nothing Special

Despite the common (if unspoken) expectation, enlightenment does not make you special. If a person feels special after awakening, it is delusory. And dangerous. What we wake up to is what we essentially are already. As is everyone and everything else. It may be an enormous relief and feel wonderful, but it is not special.
