Re: NowHere

So, for instance, my girlfriend does stuff that upsets me. From a no self vantage point this is just flurries and eddie's of thoughts feelings and sensations, but a lot of the time it sure as heck feels like someone individual, distinctive, threatened, and at risk! (by the way this is not to ...

Re: NowHere

In other words she's referencing 'somebody and this sounds more like psychotherapeutic work she's talking about,.... How do you see this fitting in with there being in actuality nobody?

Re: NowHere

Thanks Sunil,
You posted something from Pema Chodron: how might this apply, since it references somebody, to the person being only conceptual?

Re: NowHere

Dear Sunil,

Happy New Year to you.

The last few days there's been a fresh influx of seeing, and a deepening noticing of the infinite nature of it. As this has happened, I've been quietly aware that without your steadfast company and sturdy insistence, I would not have had a trustworthy footing to ...

Re: NowHere

No, such experiences absolutely seemed like Something, and what's more, totally happening to Somebody! I'm pretty sure that unfortunate state could get re-constellated 'by' my girlfriend PDQ! BUT (and it's always a risky experiment to give voice to the kind of things I posted about today, because ...

Re: NowHere

Hello Sunil,

I hope you are well. I haven't posted much of any value for a while, but the last 24 hours have been a bit of an eye-opener, so to speak, and I wanted to share some of the impossible-to-convey (!) noticing with you, since without your sturdy companionship in the weeks leading up to ...

Re: NowHere

What strikes me the last couple of days is how completely ok now is....and how much the stream of thoughts is busy chasing-after, what you recently called "the old conditioning reminded by everything around..." (and it is indeed compellingly echoed in the problematic interactions between people ...

Re: NowHere

Thank you Sunil, I feel touched by your post, for your kind spaciousness toward what seems very much like a continuous process, although the bad generals are in condemnation for failure to instantly complete it! And by a certain kind of generosity, towards something that on the conventional surface ...

Re: NowHere

Thanks Sunil,

I suppose if the habit intrinsically contained a potentially devastating error, that might be a problem.

I'm just finding it interesting to go back to journaling, which was where I first explicitly realized there's no separate self now, and keep on going with the process. Because I ...

Re: NowHere

Thanks Sunil,

I appreciate what you say about disturbance.

And today, I've resumed writing in a journal: what makes me think there's a 'me'?

Cheers!

Re: NowHere

Hi Sunil,

I hope you're okay — our correspondence has been such a constant in my life for quite some time now that when it's interrupted, I notice it.

If I was going to die next week, would I remain cautious about love? I can't quite put my finger on what happened in the session with Ilona, but ...

Re: NowHere

In the middle of the night last night sleepless, realized I don't foundationally believe in I anymore.
