He emphasises the importance of questioning reality and perceptions and urges listeners to maintain an inquisitive approach when reading, referencing a slide deck on the topic to clarify concepts.

These activities, along with workbook exercises, form a core part of the exploration, aimed at provoking deeper thought and forming stronger connections with the text.
