Illusion Exodus: Conversations on Authentic Connection and Self Determination

One of the biggest opportunities we have right now in the digital sphere is to create sanctuary and collaborate, and being that Portals of Samadhi isn't just a travel agency, it's a vehicle for unique experiences, we are excited to announce the next session of Illusion Exodus!

In Hinduism, this idea of "illusion" is captured in the term "Maya."

It suggests that our world, experienced through the senses, is not the final reality but a veil hiding the true eternal spiritual essence.

In Ancient Egyptian thought, the physical world was seen as a reflection of a higher spiritual realm, emphasizing that material existence is transient and not the absolute truth.

Similarly, Buddhism views our perceived reality as distorted by desires and ignorance, leading to suffering.

The path to enlightenment is said to involve seeing beyond this illusion to understand the impermanent and interconnected nature of all things.
