Do I Need To Self-inquire?

@onacloudynight One of the words for enlightenment is self-realization. It's only through realizing your true nature as no-self (self-inquiry is designed to help with that) that would lead to realizing the Absolute.

But is it possible to realize your true nature with just meditation alone?

What was the very first thing which made you meditate in your life?

Back in the day I used to do a lot of psychedelics. It was before I even heard about Leo's channel. I really enjoyed the altered states of consciousness it gave me and I always wondered if there was any way I could get to those states normally. When I heard about meditation through watching Leo's videos, I intuitively knew that if I started meditating that I would be able to tap into those states. That is why I started. Probably not a good reason, but it got me into it nonetheless.

@onacloudynight Meditation will help to calm the monkey-mind. To self-realize, I'm not sure. The Absolute can only be realized from the point of no-self.

Just coming by asking for a good self-inquiry method. Anybody got some experience with neti-neti?
