Sesanima

Sesanima is a term that refers to a specific philosophical concept related to the nature of consciousness and the self. It is often discussed in the context of spiritual traditions and certain schools of Eastern philosophy, particularly those that emphasize a non-dualistic understanding of reality. The core idea behind Sesanima is that the perceived separation between an individual's consciousness and the universal consciousness is an illusion. Instead, it proposes that all individual minds are manifestations or aspects of a single, overarching consciousness.

This perspective suggests that the individual ego, with its sense of being a distinct entity, is not the ultimate reality. True understanding, according to Sesanima, comes from recognizing this interconnectedness and transcending the limitations of the individual self. Practices aimed at achieving this state often involve meditation, mindfulness, and philosophical inquiry. The ultimate goal is to realize the unity of all existence, leading to a profound sense of peace and liberation from suffering, which is often seen as arising from the false belief in separateness. The term itself is not widely recognized in Western philosophical discourse but finds resonance in discussions of Advaita Vedanta, Buddhism, and other traditions that explore the nature of ultimate reality and subjective experience.
