Hi Bodhi,
Nice to hear from you! I looked at my private message inbox and there are no messages. So maybe you can try again!
Thanks,
Lynn

Hi Bodhi,
Sorry for the delay. I have been having life challenges like my house being burglarized and my wallet stolen with all my identification, credit cards, checkbook, etc. I think there has been a significant shift in how I experience such things. There is a deeper surrender to "what is ...

Hi Bodhi,
I hope you have resolved your technical problems.

it seems that when there is the appearance of this imagined "I", there is some tension around that? Would you say this is the case?

The shackles of the old self tend to hold on - it's just a habit. What replaces this? Can you live the ...

Hi Bodhi,
Nice to hear from you!

And again it is easy to step from here to the questions about "Source" and morality and the reasons for why things are a certain way. Who or what is wanting the answers to these questions? How can these questions be effectively resolved?


When I look, I see that ...

Hello again Bodhi!

Could I ask you to spend some time in an open exploration of this "just happening"? Look at life, look at the body, look at others, look at space and time....

I have been looking at "just happening" as life goes on. Internally, it is seen that thoughts, following thoughts ...

Hi Bodhi :)

Is there a "you" who is "being it", or is there just being-ness itself?

Is there a "you" and an "IS"-ness or is there just what IS?

This has been difficult for me to see. It seems that there is only being-ness itself and Is-ness, yet if I self-reflect it appears to create a subtle ...

So since there is no "you" to be found, it is easy to conclude that what is here is "awareness, consciousness, one-ness"...."whateverness" we want to call it - right?

Yes, there is an aware presence here in the absence of a "me." However, I do not see that as a Self or an identity. And, I don't ...

Hi Bodhi,
Okay, thanks! I didn't remember doing that. That is what I am used to calling myself, so you can refer to me as Lynn Marie if you want. I would like to respond to your last post.

The fact of the matter is that in order to "See what is true", we need to drop everything that we have ...

HI Bodhi,
First of all, I have never referred to myself as Lynn Marie in our communications, so I am wondering how you got that? Most people refer to me as Lynn Marie, but I was only using Lynn for these public communications in order to be more anonymous. I would like to know about this before I ...

HI Bodhi,
Thank you for your response. I do not know how prepared I am to be my own authority, but I am willing . And I am excited by that possibility. It is also a little scary in that there is an aloneness involved in that. When we "stand on our own two feet" so to speak, we stand alone. But yes ...

Hi Bodhi,
No problem! Thanks for letting me know.

Hi Bodhi,
Thank you for your response. Yes I already know that seeing that there is no self will not stop "selfing" from continuing. That has quite an energetic momentum on it! I have been working with this for a long time. And the momentum has slowed down as a result of the resting and awareness ...

Hi Bodhi,
I answered all the questions and have not heard from you all week. So I checked here to see if there was a response and I can't find my last post. It must not have gone through. So I will answer the last two questions again.

Describe decision, intention, free will, choice and control ...

3) How does it feel to see this? What is the difference from before you started this dialogue? Please report from the past few days.

What I am noticing: Deeper relaxation, dramatic drop in motivation to make any effort spiritually, more letting go and letting be, still following thought a lot but ...

Hi Bodhi, Here are responses to the first two questions.

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


As I look in my own direct experience, I cannot find a separate entity that is a self. All I find is phenomena that is ...
