Re: Knocking at the gate.

What exactly is wanting/expecting the labelling machine to switch off?

This question is in reference to the highlighted/quoted words above it. However, within those words there is no expression of wanting/expecting the labelling to switch off, just the reporting of the observation that, quite ...

Re: Knocking at the gate.

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

No, there isn't and never has been a separate entity - "self," "me," "I" in any shape or form, ever.

2) Explain in detail what the illusion of separate self is, when it starts and how ...

Re: Knocking at the gate.

What about control, free will, etc? How do things happen? What is in control?

There's no control, or free will. This has been seen for some time. A couple of years ago a friend was asking me about an event in the story of "me" and he said, "How did you do that? You must have had to make the right ...

Re: Knocking at the gate.

Since the last post a shift has occurred. During the reading of the enlightenment quotes on the LU website the part was read about awareness aware-nessing, on its own, without anyone doing it. A cloud which had been blocking seeing was removed. In the searching that had taken place over the years it ...

Re: Knocking at the gate.

So, to check back, is "I" / "me" any more than just a collection of thoughts?
Look now, in the present moment and check until you have seen clearly!
Is it anything more than just a ball of thoughts?

The I/Me cannot be anything other than just a collection of thoughts - a tangled knot of them ...

Re: Knocking at the gate.

For the next exercise, bring up the thought of “me” / “I”. Take a long, careful look and report back a list of all the things that come up when you think “I”?

Initially, when I look inside, what the words I/Me represent right now is a kind of centralising thing around which everything happens ...

Re: Knocking at the gate.

How does actual experience compare to thought?
The thought is like a muted version of the actual experience. Like the difference between looking at a full colour image of an apple as opposed to one where the image is transitioning from black and white to colour. The colours are visible out of the ...

Re: Knocking at the gate.

Hi Tim

Or could it be, that it is the other way round? That most of the time, we are stuck in a compulsive activity that OBSCURES the flow that is already default experience?


Yes, I see this, Tim. It cannot be any other way. There is only the Infinite Whole unfolding, from which there is ...

Knocking at the gate.

LU is focused guiding for seeing there is no real, inherent 'self' - what do you understand by this?
That there is no truth in the statement "I've just had an idea." In reality an idea (thought) manifested, followed by another thought (I've just had as idea) but in reality a fictitious idea of a ...
