SecX has spoken before on the idea of soul mates but I think deeper then that is a magical assumption about the nature of ‘the soul.’ Even if we recognize that there’s no such metaphysical, magical energy animating our bodies, we all seem to be seeking a certain quietness of mind, where our true identity, thoughts and desires can be heard. But if there is no still quiet voice that makes us us, then what the hell are we? And how the hell are we supposed to show anyone else? This week our four person panel examines our demons and looks at the dangers of over-identification. Catch the episode below and be sure to check back afterwards for some footNOTES!
