Thank you my friend.

😊

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

No and no.

2) Explain in detail what the illusion of separate self is, when it starts and how it works from your own experience. Describe it fully as you see it now.

Well, the illusion ...

I'm ready for the Final Questions.

This has been really great Jeff. It has been, as you said, a great dialogue and I really appreciate it. I absolutely want to stay in touch via FB. I can't recall if my last name is anywhere on the application, but my name on FB is Bill Giruzzi if you don't mind ...

Hi

It's very interesting what you wrote.

This struck me:

"Finally, we see the big picture and then the question, "Is there a self?" no longer makes sense. Then no doubts and no further questions arise."

I notice that statements like this or listening to Pam from the video often turn into a goal ...

Jeff,

Thanks for sharing this.

This past April, I was still not doing well with my anxiety. I had started electric shock therapy in January and had done my 19th treatment in April. I don't remember any of this, but sometime soon after my 19th treatment, my wife and I were out shopping. As she ...

Hey Jeff,

This note is just to confirm that you didn't respond to my last response (starting with "It feels quiet. It feels peaceful.")

It's totally fine if you haven't responded. I thought I saw an email that came after it, but there's no post from you. I suspect I'm just mistaken, but wanted to ...

It feels quiet. It feels peaceful.

Sometimes it doesn't seem real. Sometimes I wonder if it all really happened.

Not to add a lot of thought. Sometimes I wonder if it will make me arrogant (Thought!). What I mean is my work is as Director of Training for a government agency and I primarily coach ...

Wow! This blew my mind: "How would you even know you were "living like that again" without a thought that said you were? The experience of "living like that again" is nothing other than the experience of just living, plus an extra meaningless thought."

Even today, I don't really know what living ...

Read you message this morning.

When I read this: "I feel the heavy, heavy weight of that, Bill. I have known it myself, albeit in different circumstances."
My heart opened.

When I read this: "Sit quietly with your eyes closed and remember what it was like to "live like that" after the stroke. Feel ...

Morning,

I'm clinging to good feelings, my body, the ideas that make me feel better, the hope of making it - being enlightened. I'm clinging to the order of my life and to letting in a little amount of unpredictability at a time.

I'm clinging to understanding. To having it all make sense ...

Hi Jeff!

It's funny ... I notice the "Bill" that is currently showing up is "It sounds like you're close. Be careful what you write so you don't mess it up." LOL

Honestly Jeff, I think it's all of those things especially finding a scheme where everything makes sense.

It seems to me that these ...

There's no seer. There's no center. There's no point of view.

1st stage: light green in bright light, dark green in dim shadows, blue, leaves closer to me blowing, leaves further from me still, brown, silver (cars), red, white (lamp post)

2nd stage: Light brown walls, white light switch, blace TV, brown sofa, multi-color pictured, blue thermos. Dim light

Hi

Sorry, I just did the exercise again and I'm honestly not sure what you're looking for. The instructions tell me to describe what I see without labels. It's all labels - tree, green, car, light. It's all labels so not sure what particularly to share.
