You’ve journeyed past ego — shed the exhausting illusion of self-importance, tasted the liberation of stepping outside your thoughts and ambitions, and even laughed at your inner dramas. Congratulations. But now, let’s venture into uncharted territory: a life so radically free from “self” it makes traditional notions of mindfulness or detachment seem quaint by comparison.

What if you no longer existed as an entity separate from your surroundings, community, and the world itself?

Abby used to be just like everyone else — working shifts at Duluth Grill, obsessing over her latest winter hiking gear, and getting irritated by tourists who couldn’t parallel park downtown. Now Abby has embarked on the radical path of no-self. Here’s a glimpse of her typical day:
