Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hi Luchana,
Can a thought know something or another thought? Can a thought speak?
Darn, I want to say the right answer, but I want to say that a thought can only know itself, (the one thought that is NOW) It seems like the experience IS that the thought knows itself, and logically i can argue ...

Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hello Luchana,
Yesterday there was more experimenting that I will maybe write an email about before we meet on Tuesday, but during that experiment it was very clear that there is nobody anywhere here or behind any of the faces. That what is behind the faces is the same behind all faces, and it's ...

Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hi Luchana,
There is no separate entity called Me, I or Self, only thoughts that say that there is a me, and there has only ever been the thoughts about a self/me/I. There is no separate I that knows the thoughts. The awareness of thoughts and thoughts aren't separate so in a way the thought only ...

Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hi Luchana,
I just listened to your new video about resistance, and reminded me about the resistance to come and answer this question and that there have seemed like good reasons not to answer earlier .. The idea was that it is a good question, and you had said to stay with it for a day or so, but ...

Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hi Luchana,
Notice do thoughts about a soup or a yogurt for example create worry or restlessness?
Not the thought itself, but thoughts that attach to those thoughts, like "I shouldn't eat more food" can create worry or restlessness due to relationship to food.. But those are more ideas of what ...

Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hi Luchana
Can you look does a thought have a substance?
What is it made of?
Does it have a smell or a taste?
I'm glad you asked this, during the group meeting when the subject of thoughts came up, and that thoughts are really there, but the content is not true, I was thinking that some ...

Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hi Luchana,
Oh and is there a definable out ?
With eyes open there is no definable IN, so there can't be an out, but there is still an idea of an in.. but it has no substance.
with eyes closed there is no definable OUT, so there can't be an IN..
Is it a head, or is it just a sensation ...

HI Luchana,

No center which is producing the thoughts?

Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hi Luchana,
Can you notice the space "in the head" where thoughts appear.
Can you notice that this space is absolutely empty and there are thoughts from time to time.
Can self be found in this space? Center which produces thoughts?
Is there anything that can be called "yourself"?
Is this space ...

Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hi Luchana,
with eyes closed the immediate sense is that there is no body and there is no celiling. With eyes closed, ceiling is imagiination only. Body is just sensations, incluidng sensation of breathing, but sounds are heard also and without thoughts and imagination there is no distinction ...

Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hi Luchana,
Does the knowing requires a knower?
Is there a knowing without an experience of it?
And is there an experience without the knowing of it?
Are there two things?
What do you find?[/rtripquote]
Only the knowing is known.. there is no evidence of a knower aside from a thought that ...

Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hello Luchana,
More than a week since I finally came to answer these questions, I had thought there a lot of them, but not very many at all! like you said in our meeting, not coming IS just like a child wanting to put off going to bed. It's always "Later!" (Until it's actually already sleeping ...

Re: Hoping to experience world as it is
Hi Luchana,
Mm, it can be tricky, but is there a choice which is NOT coming as a product of the conditioning?
Does the sense choose?
Does a thought choose?
What can decide to follow or not to follow a thought?
Hm, so there appeared to be a decision to pause watching a TV show and come into this ...
