Re: I'm new here
Hi Eloratea, Sitting quietly this morning, thoughts coming and going. The thoughts are just thoughts. Not me, not my thoughts. Life resides within this body, as does it in all manifestations. There is no ownership of life. Now is the time for this body to spend more time, learning to quiet the mind ...

Re: I'm new here
Hello Eloratea, How does it feel to see this, right now? :) This is a hard question to answer. There is a feeling of much more work to be done. Just because yesterday there was a moment whilst writing to you about the snowflake, the illusion was dispelled it doesn't mean that the gateless gate has b...

Re: I'm new here
Tell me later more about snowflake-Tim - is he afraid to surrender to free fall without belief in separate self? He was afraid until now, he didn't think so, but he was. Now is the time for snow. Was there ever time when this snowflake had a separate self? What changes with seeing this? The snowfla...

Re: I'm new here
So, something came to "me" "No snowflake ever falls in the wrong place" - Which is something I read once. No decision is ever wrong, because "I" don't make that decision. Life unfolds and is experienced - Not by me, it is just experience. The mind weaves a story, because that is a side effect of the...

Re: I'm new here
Hello again, Thanks for your patience. There is still an image of self and ownership of thoughts through most of the day. The mornings seem to be the best time for just experiencing thoughts and feelings of peace. Although through observation, the evidence is quite obvious that the "self" doesn't ex...

Re: I'm new here
Is there some observable experiencing agent? There is experience, but there is no experiencing agent. When I spoke of an observer, there is an awareness of observation taking place I can't say there is a specific observing entity. Was there you stuck? Was the loop created by the very same belief th...

Re: I'm new here
It is ok to say „I“ type. But when you zoom in the experience how it looks like? Is there someone thinking thoughts or thoughts arise as part of the experience. Is there some observable experiencing agent? Ok, I see what you're getting at. The action of typing and the thoughts that arise whilst typ...

Re: I'm new here
I meant that you describe your actual experience as noticing all the perceptions (seeing, hearing, fingers typing, body sitting, breathing….) so you shift attention from thinking on direct perceiving. I understand now, I misunderstood before. as i type i feel my fingers hit the keyboard and hear th...

Re: I'm new here
There is the feeling of observer when thoughts pop up, most of the time. There was an unfortunate incident yesterday in which anger took over and it felt like "I" was in a feed back loop. The same thoughts over and over causing the same physical feelings causing the same thoughts. The thought cycle ...

Re: I'm new here
Hello Eloratea, How does it feel to see the illusion of self? There is no obvious feeling about the knowing of the illusion. More an emotive detachment from the thoughts themselves. As thoughts have been popping in as they inevitably always do, there is isn't the same identification with the thought...

Re: I'm new here
Hello Eloratea,
In answer to your question; no, I can't explain anymore about the "I" that dwells on thoughts. "I" is the thoughts, which aren't real. The thoughts and "I" are the same thing.
I drank too much last night and it felt like I was watching myself...

Re: I'm new here
what is self? is it real? is it necessary for any of the life processes? Self is the illusion created by a catalogue of memories of experiences, therefore not real life. Similar to computer program that randomly discharges electrical signals that are decoded as sequences of memory. Virtual reality....

Re: I'm new here
So was there self walking, or body was simply moving? No, there is no self walking. There is illusion of self due to the thought processes that are happening. Very strange feelings in the gut today, and slightly light headed. Thoughts were fighting each other for attention. When grabbing hold of an...
