Re: Who am I?
Hi Vivien,
1) Is there a separate entity 'self', 'me' 'I', at all, anywhere, in any way, shape or form?
Was there ever?
Not any that can be found. There never could have been one; if there is an assumption of a separate "me", it is still appearing in this already immediate beingness.

Re: Who am I?
Hi Vivien,
Can a self be found making the body leave the bed?
Where does the "decision", the "command" to get up comes from?
What makes the body get up?
Is there an ‘I’ that commands the body?
When lying there, shout 'GET UP' internally as loudly as you can. Does that affect the outcome?
There's ...

Re: Who am I?
Hi Vivien,
So, which one feels to be true for you?
There's still some lingering slight concern that this has somehow just been a big old intellectualization, but there is also an undoubtable directness and vividness to this as well that wasn't here before. And even the concern can be seen as ...

Hi Vivien,
I see what you're saying. I will keep looking at this again and again despite the sense of uncertainty at times. Surprisingly, there has been some increases in clarity after the last post, where I recognized that there it is completely hopeless for "me" to ever grasp or understand this. I ...

Hi Vivien,
How much of this is actually seen, and how much of this an intellectual understanding only?
What can be seen is that all phenomena simply appears, when looked, nothing is found outside the appearing. When looking happens, that is seen, and there is a sort of relaxation to it. Things ...

Hi Vivien,
this inquiry is exhausting in many ways, but lets keep going, "no time for caution" :)
Who/what is asking the question?
I don't know. Nothing that can be found. The question is another appearance. Another thought. Any kind of answer would be too, and wouldn't get to the "root" of this ...

Re: Who am I?
Hi Vivien,
So look at this. Is this awareness a noun (non-physical thing), or a verb (happening)?
It's a verb, something that is just spontaneously happening. I can see that I was seeing awareness kind of as a thing, when it's just something happening.
What other name can you give to ‘it’ if ...
