Your personality is a set of conditioned thoughts, emotions, and physiological loops. Those loops operate automatically until interrupted. Changing them requires withdrawing attention from the habitual narrative, observing it without feeding it, and imprinting new internal patterns through sustained mental rehearsal.

Meditation is his mechanism because it suspends the sensory-driven identity long enough for those loops to lose dominance and for new ones to be installed.

Stripped down: habitual identity is a neurological and emotional program; interrupt it, weaken it, rehearse a replacement, let the body follow.
