Yes, i would like to join the LU Facebook groups!!!

From your own words it seems you have looked and haven't found a self, a person, so what remains?

All that remains is experience!!!! :-)

Also, do you have doubts or is there something regarding the self illusion that seems unclear?

Nothing seems unclear anymore; it's such a relief. I don't ...

Just thought that I should ask you what do you do when I ask you to look or see something. Can you describe what you do when looking for a self?

Usually when I look for "I", I will turn my focus inwards as if I'm trying to look at my own head. This allows me to focus on my direct experience ...

Do you expect to reach a special state as a result of looking?

For awhile, I was expecting to get to a special state as a result of looking. And, you are absolutely right...it made me doubt everything. I'm starting to recognize that each experience is out of "my" hands and "I" just have to flow ...

What can you find that is personal - linked to the existance of a findable, real entity, a little real me ...

Is there a difference between believing a self can be experienced and believing in the existence of Santa Claus when you are a little kid? How do you know if something exists or not? I mentioned Santa and that's a good example of something that only exists in our imagination, can you give me one ...

Sandra,

I will be happy to have you as my guide!!! I look forward to our conversation together. I'm going to answer your questions honestly and straight forward without getting to caught up in long drawn out conversations.


Well, for this expectation to realize you first need to find a self ...

LU is focused guiding for seeing there is no real, inherent 'self' - what do you understand by this?
This means that we feel identical with our thoughts instead of the world around us. By observing our thoughts (looking for the self) we can create a gap in which thoughts stop. When thoughts stop, we ...
