Ilona Ciunaite on Self-Inquiry and Finding Inner Peace
Well, the purpose, I think, is just to experience, to learn, to grow, to expand, to return to what we are and just to go through all these interesting and wild and intense experiences, fail and grow, and it's just being alive.
Curious about how self-inquiry can lead to true freedom? In this engaging episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles sits down with Ilona Ciunaite, the author of *Liberation Unleashed*. Born in Lithuania and armed with a degree in psychology, Ilona has always been fascinated by the workings of the mind. Her journey began in 2002 when she first experienced a profound sense of inner peace.
However, it was discovering Jed McKenna's books in 2010 that truly shook her belief system and set her on a path of intense self-inquiry. Through months of challenging her own assumptions, Ilona came to see the illusion of the separate self. She started sharing her insights on her blog, 'Marked, Eternal', and eventually co-founded the Liberation Unleashed community in 2011, helping others see through their own illusions.
In this conversation, Ilona and Valeria discuss the importance of questioning fundamental beliefs, the nature of reality, and how to remove obstacles to true happiness. They delve into the power of the mind, the heart's desires, and the creative process. Ilona's perspective is both enlightening and practical, offering listeners a roadmap to inner peace and oneness. Whether you're new to self-inquiry or well along your journey, this episode provides valuable insights and inspiration.
