Thank you so much for all your help Bill, you are a super star :)

I will definitely check out the groups and things.

I really appreciate that you give your time to this, it is very special.

Namaste indeed :)

4) What was the last bit that pushed you over, made you actually take the look?

I was sitting feeding Daisy and looking at what was happening, noticing a sense of me-ness and then the thought of something I had read a few days earlier popped in to my head. That the me-ness is the glue that holds ...

1) Is there a separate entity 'self', 'me' 'I', at all, anywhere, in any way, shape or form? Was there ever?

No there is no separate entity 'me' anywhere. There never has been, there have just been thoughts and words that describe a 'me' but in reality it was never there.

2) Explain in detail ...

Yes I'd say the less stickiness is true of emotions or a bit like watching things almost from a third person perspective. In terms of finding people who are responsive, I am lucky that there are quite a few people in my life who are up for the conversation at least. It's nice to know there is an ...

Hi

Sorry I didn't reply yesterday, Daisy's been ill and I had a pretty strong head ache all day so I did not get a chance. Well it would be truer to say a head ache was happening. It didn't feel as personal as it would have in the past, all things Georgina related don't feel quite so personal now ...

Hi Bill

Today I had a shift in perspective. It doesn’t feel much different from before. I can see all the processes that make up Georgina happening, thoughts, feelings and so on but they aren’t me, I see that there is no self in them. They’re just things happening as much as anything else is. I can ...

Hi Bill

I'm really sorry but I'm not going to get a chance to respond properly today. I just wanted to let you know that it's still all very much at the forefront of things for me and I will respond properly tomorrow.

Thanks

What can a thought do – what power does it have?
Can a thought think?
You experience thoughts, but do you experience the content? Is the content real?

Thoughts can only create stories, or a the telling of stories. They cannot think. You only experience the thought, not the content. Sometimes the ...

So, except as a thought (which we are often willing to defend) , does a 'you" own anything? Please explain how owning happens in thoughts and then in the world.


I can’t own anything with out thoughts. The idea of ownership comes in with the labels of the mind. With out the mind’s labels there ...

Once again, LOOK at direct experience, describe what comes first...

The experiences come first. The sights, sounds, feelings, bodily sensations. They come in first and then the mind (pretty quickly) comes in second to claim them and label them as me or other.


The computer in front of you, is ...

Hi Bill

This is what I found...

There are sensations in my body, sounds, when I open my eyes there are sights but I am not these things. There is a sense that I am the observer of these things but when I look for that observer I can't find it. I can chase the sensations around my body but they are ...

Georgina, your reality already is your reality, there is nothing to change, only your perception of it will be different. We don't get rid of a 'self' but will see 'through it' as being made up, as being the illusion it is.

I understand what you're saying. I guess if there is a truth of life it ...

Hello Bill

Thank you, all is very well. I do feel very privileged to witness the process of learning a self that she is going through. It’s definitely helped me. And the irony of me trying to ‘unlearn’ it at the same time as she learns is not lost on me!


1) Tell me what you want to have happen ...

Right now let go of becoming anything... for a moment. let go of understanding. let go of protecting yourself, being something, knowing what I am, getting out of this, transcending, and all the rest.

I must admit I have felt pretty resistant to this in trying to think about it the past couple of ...

Hello Phillip

Thank you for being my guide.

and this will not solve your problems because what you think they are is just what is

Don't worry, however nice it would be for this to solve all if my problems I know that it won't!

Tell me something about your experience in all this ...
