Where do all of one’s accumulated learning and life experience go when one dies, and does any of it benefit the greater whole?

![Questioning Your Personal Identity
How can enquiring into your sense of {identity} undermine the [conditioning] that gives rise to feelings of inferiority or superiority towards others?
Rupert says: ‘If you enquire deeply into yourself and someone else, you see there’s no hierarchy. That’s your experience. But don’t just understand it intellectually – feel it. If you stay with this experiential answer to your question, it will undermine the relatively superficial conditioning you have.’
‘All our ideas about being better or worse than others are superficial compared to the true knowledge we have of our self and of others. One is not better than the other, one is not more valuable. There is no hierarchy. This understanding should be the foundation of all our relationships. Imagine what kind of world we would live in if we all knew and felt this basic truth.’
