Hi Luchana,

Seeing that there is no me is not a one time event. It is just a recognition that there was none, never. Not that there was a self and now it is gone.
Can you see this? Yes. tricky habitual mind. Profundity of your statement and question. Thank you!

Oh, such a beautiful and loving ...

Hi Luchana,

Focus in very much needed in this investigation, so willigness for everyday posting.
But you don't have to do this if you don't want, we can stop this in any time.
I do want to do this. i didn’t realize it was a requirement to post everyday. i felt the need to regroup for a few days ...

Hi Luchana,

Thanks for checking in with me. 💗 Reactions and stuff going on here that seemed to cause a set-back,...painful
defense mechanism popping up about what ‘he’ said to me....then auto-reacting.... so been sitting with that.
Back to prior chat about sensations...

Who or what is bringing ...

Hi Luchana,
Apologies....I was distraught over the intensity and didn’t know how to respond previously. I think now you are asking me to go back to 1/22 and answer those questions first...before answering your 1/23 questions...so here goes.

1/22 re fear / intense energies arising
Is there an ...

Hi Luchana,

Is there an experiencER, separate from the experience?
Where?
Is there someone or something to whom the experiences are happening?

This one seems difficult. It was interesting that a beautiful feeling was there when the appearance occurred, yet the resulting energy (no feeling-just ...

Hi Luchana,


Ask the fear:
What do you want to protect me from?
What is the ‘negative’ story, what would happen?

Observe what images and stories come up ‘justifying’ its right to fear.
If you ignore the stories (thoughts) and mental images what is BEHIND the fear?
Look very closely. This fear ...

Hi Luchana,

Is there something (literally) which you are able to see/observe, hear, touch, taste, feel?
Look directly. It is very simple, no need to intellectualise or imagine anything.
Literally nothing

Nowhere. no shape, form, colour ...

What is mind when you observe it in this very moment?

I don’t know....blank

How is mind experienced exactly?
Not experienced - just is

As an image, as a sound, as a sensation?
No... but in silence there seems to be something like slight buzzing sound.

Or as imagination?
hummm...just ...

Hi Luchana


What do you do in order to think?
Nothing...it just automatically happens.

"I think" - is this true?
No....just automatic happening. if a ‘past’ thought/memory arises mind can get quite busy with chattering. :)

Can you predict the next thought?
Definitely not .. beautiful ...

Luchana,

Thank you for your reply.

Thank you for aswering these questions regarding expectations. It’s important, because every expectation is in a way of seeing what is here, right now. It's quite common that very easy one can miss something obvious because expecting something to happen, to ...

Hi Luchana,

Could you tell me what is it that you hoping to happen when the self is seen through?
How will you change?

Hoping to see clearly there is no me....and this character will respond differently to Life’s happenings. respond rather than react.

How will life change?

I don’t know that ...
