Greetings! My name is Neil. I am a secular Buddhist thinker who spent around 28.5 years in psychosis. I have been sane since early 2024. In a way, I am as young as a teenager if we consider what psychosis truly is: a state where you are nothing more than a silent witness to your brain living as you—an existence little better than death.

Being a schizophrenic in remission, I had to understand sanity to make sense of things. As a result, I gravitated towards secular Buddhism.

I hold a bachelor’s degree from the University of Toronto. I also have a degree in education. I am employed with the government, but I am off work due to my mental health.

I have made this website to help spread secular Buddhism in my small way out of compassion for humanity. In a way, you can call me a very part-time secular Buddhist missionary.
