Key Themes in "The ILLUSION of the Self … Experienced in Duality"

1. The Egocentric Illusion
   Dumitru examines how the self dominates our thoughts, actions, and perceptions of reality. He candidly admits his own struggle with egocentrism, describing it as a “disease” he has suffered from since childhood.
2. Writing as Self-Therapy
   The author uses writing as a tool to confront his inner struggles, define his illusions, and attempt to heal himself. His essays are both deeply personal and universally relatable, offering readers a glimpse into his journey of self-reflection.
3. Meditation and Self-Analysis
   Dumitru delves into the practice of meditation as a way to detach from the illusion of the self. He explores the concept of not identifying with the body, emotions, or the persona we present to the world, describing it as a “weird but interesting exercise.”
4. The Duality of Existence

5. Humility and Acceptance
