Personality is something hardly talked about in many Non-Dual circles, but understanding yourself relatively speaking can not only help you in your awakening process, and understand why you behave certain ways, are attracted to ways of being etc, but can help you truly understand yourself as a 'Human' (incoming No-Self bandwagoners, sorry!) and from there 'design' your ideal life and well, the life of your dreams.  The Enneagram has 9 types from 1-9 and most people often have a dominant wing type as well as their ONE main type, everyone has a main type.  Here's some articles and an online test, although online tests aren't all that.  https://www.enneagramworldwide.com/the-enneagram/ Test (best I found) - https://www.truity.com/test/enneagram-personality-test I've mentioned it a couple times on here before, but was watching Alex Becker's recent video (great Entrepreneur but of course has never had an awakening, and doesn't understand the true nature of happiness, and that it can't be found in any THING, would say he's Orange/ Green atm, but gives AMAZING Biz advice) about how Minimalism & Dopamine Detoxes and only working on his Biz and having nothing else in life (literally) made him the happiest, and it was the PERFECT example of an Enneagram 5. Now, of course this advice is brilliant, but not everyone will become a Minimalist Monk with no possessions or hobbies outside of work and live their happiest lives, because we are all UNIQUE beings! There is NO 'right' way to live, it is SO dependent and unique on us as individuals to decide what kind of life we truly want and desire. 5's are VERY intellectual, minimalist, simple and enjoy being alone, I spoke with @electroBeam and could tell he was a 5 and he confirmed it, Ramaji is also a 5! For example, I run my own business and want to grow it to 7/8 figures, but I don't want to go to the extremes of having no possessions and no friends or hobbies, that just doesn't work for me, like it works for Becker, but this comes from understanding yourself relatively speaking, which the Enneagram helps massively with.  I first learned about this working 1-1 with Ananda Devi (Ramajis partner) and discovered I am a type 7, which explained so much! Type 7s are always chasing joy, happiness, enjoyment, excitement, basically anything positive. Russell Brand is the perfect example of an extreme 7. The 'deadly sins' (enneagram not Christian term) of a 7 is that we find it hard to slow down, do nothing, and actually sit with negative feelings and truly feel them, instead the default is to escape them through any means necessary.  This explained why I used to always struggle to meditate deeply, or when I felt resistance and boredom I would instantly turn to my PS4 or Porn as an escape, or at one point Weed, and why I was always looking for that next 'high' whether it was the rave at the weekend or some sort of intense workout, and why I would NEVER let myself get bored.  This taught be to learn to sit with my emotions as they arose and truly investigate and feel them, instead of escaping and this was SO key in my own Spiritual journey! As it prevented me from even escaping in endless Non-Dual videos and books, and actually face the demons head on and 'do the work' so to speak.  The Enneagram also helps you understand what life you desire to live, and that there really is NO one size fits all approach to life, a true understanding of the Enneagram will certainly correspond with SD stage Yellow, as you understand the different perspectives and realities people operate from, and what they as individuals want, crave and what motivates them etc, it can be such a helpful tool in so many areas of life, which is why I am working 1-1 with Ananda now solely to master this incredible tool as right now I'm quite the novice!  So, I recommend everyone to describe a bit about their personality, take the Enneagram test ( https://www.truity.com/test/enneagram-personality-test ) and read up on the 9 types and see what one resonates with you most and take it from there, then you can dive deep into yourself for personal, professional and spiritual growth!  We are all The Absolute, yet simultaneously, we are all unique beings, with unique personalities and that's what makes life so fucking beautiful!  Some of us dream to work all day every day, some of us wish to raise incredible families, some of us wish to travel to world, and some of us wish to live our days in a Monastery or in a simple style, knowing this can help us SOOO much.  If you prefer videos, I will link Ananda's YouTube series on the 9 Enneagram types. In regards to books, make sure to check, a lot are written from a Christian perspective!
