Ego Death

Ego death refers to a profound experience where an individual’s sense of separate self dissolves, leading to a sense of unity with the universe or a greater whole. It often occurs during intense spiritual practices, meditation, or certain psychedelic states. During this experience, the usual boundaries between oneself and the outside world fade, which can bring feelings of peace, interconnectedness, and transformation. While fleeting for many, ego death can also lead to lasting shifts in perspective, helping individuals see beyond their personal identity and fostering a deeper sense of meaning and interconnectedness.
