Hi Kay,

I have no further questions, thanks.


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


No, there is definitely no separate entity ‘self’, ‘me’, ‘I’ at all and there never was, which would explain why no matter how much I ...

Hi Kay,


If you put aside all the labels…what is actually there is simply colour. Now, ignore the label ‘colour’ and what do you find?



Ignore the label 'colour' and what is left just 'is'. I can certainly see how the labels are just stacked on top of that.


Thought also says that there is ...

Hi Kay,


You’re responses are so clear!


Good to know, thanks! :)


So if you go back to the brown table exercise, of ignoring the labels 'table' 'brown', 'colour' to what always IS,,THIS...is the HereNow/THIS never not?


I don't believe that we have done a brown table exercise, so I may be a ...

Hi Kay,


How fast is the ‘present moment’ actually moving?


The present moment is not moving at all, it is right now and is always right now.


Just look at 'this moment', can you find a point where it began?


No, I cannot find any kind of point where it suddenly becomes the 'present moment ...

Hi Kay,

Is there sensation “of the body” or there is sensation which thought says points to a body? Does the sensation itself suggest in any way that it is a body? Does the sensation itself know anything about a body?


Ah yes, that makes sense. There is just the sensation, which thought says is ...

Hi Kay,


Do you have any questions about anything so far?


Thank you, I feel that I have understood everything so far, and cannot think of any questions. I did the exercise given about sitting with eyes closed, and...


Can it be known how tall the body is?


No, it is impossible to discern ...

Hi Kay,


And what is the AE of ‘intent’? What does the label ‘intent’ point to in actual experience?


No actual experience of ‘intent’. There is nothing there...no sound, no taste, no colour, no sensation. just a label.


What is the AE of ‘the mind’?



Ah….good point...another label for ...

Hi Kay,


How is the movement controlled?


I don't 'think' of moving the hand at all in order to make it move, there is no thought involved. If thought had been required to control the movement then it would have taken sustained focused 'thought' on the mechanics of making the hand move ...

Hi Kay,

Unfortunately it has been a super busy day and I have not been able to give this the attention it requires. I will be able to give it my full attention tomorrow when I am not exhausted and unable to concentrate.

Love,

Hi Kay,

In actual experience is there really “guys chasing a ball around a field”? What is the AE of guys, ball, field?


In actual experience there is colour, sound. ‘Guys chasing ball around field’ is just the content of a thought labeling and therefore not actual experience.


Yes, but did ...

Hi Kay,

The link was broken unfortunately but I found another football match and did the exercise a few times today.


Did you notice how the muted video left you rather neutral towards the apparent happenings on screen


Yes, there was very little, if any involvement or identification with what ...

Hi Kay,


When you look at the following picture...what do you see? A vase or faces?


I think that I have seen that picture before a long time ago which would explain why I could instantly see both the faces and the vase...so absolutely as you said...what has been seen cannot be unseen. It was ...

Just break down daily activities into these categories (which are all actual experience) and report back how you go.

Hi Kay,

I did not have as much time to dedicate to this as I wanted to today, however, when I was able to I grabbed a moment to concentrate on doing it and break things down in ...

Is there really an ‘apple’ here, or only colour and a thought ABOUT ‘apple’?
Can ‘apple’ be found in actual experience?

No there is no 'apple' there, only the image/colour and thoughts about that image that identify and label it as an 'apple'. 'Apple' is nothing more then a label, a word used to ...

Resistance is just another form of fear….a defense mechanism, and it is normal as there is fear about seeing and/or not seeing and what seeing actually looks like and what it means etc… because it is unknown, although you will come to see that there is nothing that is unknown.


I lay down for a ...
