Re: Way of Suffering

Sorry to butt in on your conversation - just a little admin issue.

Govinda, your email account isn't working. The error message is "exceeded storage allocation". Maybe you need to delete some old emails before you can get any new ones.

Because this is annoying the admins I've turned off all ...

Re: Freedom from the I

Hi Rami,

Everything is taken as true such as language, "so-called I" but it is being seen nothing is there, language is just the composition of the sounds(words) in particular order and those orders taken true and without verifying the truthfulness those orders. It is the same in the case of "I ...

Re: Freedom from the I

Hi Rami,

I'd love to meet you! I have been to Bengaluru before. It was a long time ago - 1993. I had a great time there. One thing I remember was a shop called Mac Fast Food where you could get pizza, hamburgers and fish and chips.

When somebody calls the name "Rami" and attention is being ...

Re: Freedom from the I

Hi Rami,

The name(Rami) is given to the body and behavior associated with it

Is there a "you" that is responsible for the behaviour? Where?
Are you the body, or are you in the body? Where?

If you wouldn't mind then is it possible to meet you in person.

I live in Manawatu, New Zealand so if ...

Re: Freedom from the I

Hi Rami,

:)

Then how to be free from the psychological conflicts, psyche is causing separate self(all the intellect) in the very first place.

It's an illusion, and it needs to be taken apart in a certain way. If you follow my instructions, you will get there.

If there is no end to the play of ...

Re: Freedom from the I

Hi Rami,

Nice to see you again! If you can post more frequently, then we can get this done. A bit of intensity in the inquiry helps enormously.

From the waking to till sleep, one's psyche projected all the day instead of seeing what is happening or what is? Unless one's psyche is ended completely ...

Re: Freedom from the I

Hi Rami,

Great answer. Thank you.

but it happens in the fullest observation only.

Then you need to do more of this full observation until the penny drops.

Please look at some simple daily experiences and notice how they are found in direct experience through the different senses + thought. For ...

Re: Freedom from the I

Hi Rami,

Actually, these projections which are acting a separate self are obstructing the actual seeing.

Seeing whether "I" is there will overcome what you imagine to be there. If you have not seen through the illusion, then you have more looking to do.

There is no "I". There is nothing ...

Re: Freedom from the I

Hi Rami,

Coming to the separate observer, when seeing is there, then the recognization which leads to the projection of the image of what is being seen. Whatever image is seen that is the observer.

Yes, with sight, there is an image, but there is also a projection: ideas about objects in space ...

Re: Freedom from the I

Hi Rami,

Great observation work! Now we need to focus in on the separate observer. Can a separate observer - separate to what is seen - be found, or not?

Re: Freedom from the I

Hi Rami,

OK - thanks. I understand that.

Yes, there is an illusion being believed but right now there is an important part of it we need to focus on: Is there a separate witness?

Recall that I asked,

Close your eyes and listen for sounds. Can you find the boundary between the sound and the ...

Re: Freedom from the I

Hi Rami,

Attention is lost. Experience is attention.

Let's break everything down into direct experience - what is seen, heard, touched, tasted, smelled and thought.

What is this experience/attention?
Does something control it?
Are there thoughts involved?

Remember that we talked about how the ...
