In this episode, Pete and Rupert go deep and we mean deep. They explore what it actually means to say "I Am," why the separate self is more illusion than fact, how awareness is the only thing that never comes and goes, and why everything you've ever sought peace, love, happiness is already present as your own nature. Pete brings his signature mix of comedy, vulnerability, and genuine spiritual hunger, and Rupert meets him with warmth, precision, and disarming clarity. This is one of those conversations that stops you mid-scroll and makes you sit with something real. Rupert's newest book, The Shining of Being, is available now the latest in his Essence of Meditation series, written so that each chapter functions as a complete meditation in itself. He also hosts the Rupert Spira Podcast, exploring non-duality with thinkers across spirituality, science, art, and mental health. His classic books — The Transparency of Things, Being Aware of Being Aware, You Are the Happiness You Seek, and The Nature of Consciousness have been translated into 12 languages and continue to transform lives around the world. 📖 Read The Shining of Being — available at rupertspira.com 🎙️ Listen to the Rupert Spira Podcast on Spotify and Apple Podcasts 🌐 Visit rupertspira.com for retreats, meditations, writings, and more 📝 Read Rupert's Substack: The Transparency of Things 📲 Follow @rupertspira on YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook 🎧 Subscribe to You Made It Weird for new episodes every week. #RupertSpira #YouMadeItWeird #PeteHolmes #NonDuality #TheShiningOfBeing #Consciousness #Spirituality #ComedyPodcast #Nonduality #Awareness #DirectPath #MindfulnessPodcast ======================================================== SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Thank you VITA COCO for being our official ON SET BEVERAGE Get 25% off and get Vita Coco shipped to your door by using code WEIRD20 https://vitacoco.com LMNT USE PROMO CODE: WEIRD FOR YOUR FREE SAMPLE PACK https://drinklmnt.com/weird ARTICLE GET $50 OFF YOUR 1ST ORDER OF $100 OR MORE http://article.com/weird RO BODY SEE IF YOUR INSURANCE COVERS GLP-1S FOR FREE http://ro.co/weird
