About this listen
What if everything you think you are is just a performance? A glitch. A mask. A beautifully rehearsed hallucination mistaken for truth.
In this episode of The Observing I, we dive deep into the architecture of the ego - how it forms, why it lies, and what happens when it collapses.
We begin with Narcissus, not as a symbol of vanity, but as a child starving for recognition. Then we break open Lacan’s Mirror Stage to reveal how our earliest sense of self is built on a fundamental misidentification. We explore the ego as interface, a lifelong performance we mistake for personality. And we descend into the terrifying, liberating silence of ego death.
This episode is about the hunger to be someone, the courage to be no one, and the wisdom to dance between the two.
If you’ve ever felt like a stranger in your own thoughts, this one is for you.
Much love, David
