Ep. 518 – The Movie of Me with Duncan Trussell

Duncan Trussell returns to Mindrolling to talk about transporting oneself out of the movie of me and into the movie of we. This week on Mindrolling, Raghu Markus and Duncan Trussell get into:Writing, producing, directing, and acting in the movie of our own livesBeing born againSitting around the fire as a metaphor for deep connectionHonesty and being ‘a fake’Transactional relationships and holding emotional debt against peopleThe fraudulent activities of the EgoGratitude giving birth to patienceFocusing on others and being in the spirit of the BuddhaRam Dass’ lesson on moving from the head to the heartThe deep seeded fear of interconnectionBoundaries within generosityTransforming our identity from me to weLiberating ourselves through brutal self-honestySnag your copy of Raghu and Duncan’s new book The Movie of Me to The Movie of We “We have an ability to be honest with ourselves, tremendously honest with ourselves. So, all of the fakery, all of the stuff that has any vestiges of manipulation or rampant desire or pushing things away, whatever it may be, there is an honesty there to really understand the motivations and the pain and the suffering and not get lost in the fraud. Honesty allows you to not get lost in the fraudulent activity of the ego.” – Raghu Markus About Duncan Trussell: Duncan Trussell is a stand-up comedian, podcaster, and actor.
