Oh, thank you so much Stacy! To you, Ilona, Elena and all the team!

You guys are doing so important job that it couldn't be overestimated.

Can you say 100% there's no separate "self?"

No, there's no separate "self".

And now I feel ready to answer your control list of questions. :)

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

No, there is no such entity as a ...

Hello Stacy,

Thank you for the 2nd exercise!

In step 1 when thinking about their respective qualities, did you ‘choose’ the qualities? Or did they kind of appear by themselves? If some preferences manifested, did you ‘choose’ these preferences? Or did they just pop up by themselves?

They just ...

Thank you Stacy!

It took a while to research it carefully.

How is the movement controlled?

Somewhere inside there is a signal, and the hand moves as it should. This "signal" is not a thought, I just feel it when the hand moves. And looking at the hand, I see how the thoughts in this case label ...

Hi Stacy,

Sorry for the long report in advance. You can skip reading to the phrase " So, a question " below, as nothing too much important below I think.

So the day before yesterday, I met with a colleague after work. We spent 3 hours together, I noticed how some of my patterns were automatically ...

Hi Stancy,

I'm pretty exhausted with the latest events at work, so I'll reply tomorrow. Apologies.

Many thanks,
Alex.

Hi Stacy,

Was pretty busy day, so didn't have too much chances to look apart from the evening. However, I see that recognition still happens. No new insights, just noticing "no me". During the evening walk investigated, how the choices and decisions are made. So for now I write it here, later ...

Nothing much to report for today,
Pretty stable recognition all the day, no bliss, and no huge struggle. Some old patterns appeared, one really "valuable" for "me" in relation to my parent. Seems all were "seen-through" pretty quickly. Looks like dissolving, sometimes automatically, sometimes needed ...

By the way, noticed that if I simply try to look for any "I" or "me" - it helps pretty much. It looks like the recognition didn't go anywhere, more like a habit to "keep chasing" if it doesn't happen as expected (expectations of bliss?.. seems I've got used to this experience during these 2 days, ha ...

Hi Stacy,

Okay, I'll reply on these questions as soon as I'm ready, as I don't have enough experience with writing such things. I started drafting with baby steps and will post later, if it's okay.

A brief report for today.
Today morning was blissful and seeing happened pretty well, even better ...

Changes everything, doesn't it, yet everything is the same.

Yes! I didn't even notice the difference at first. It wasn't even a "click" or something, just a barely noticeable shift of the perception. Then we went for a walk with my wife and it gradually started to "unfold", so eventually started ...

I decided to go through the exercises you gave me again. It looks like the puzzle is now slowly being put together, what it was all about.

This is the thought process I went through this morning.

I have a distrust of the Western world - is it good? Can it be trusted?

At the same time, I feel a ...

Yesterday I didn't report - apologies for breaking the agreement.

Was surprisingly deeply upset because of my colleague, with whom we work very close as a team-of-2 for almost a year. Seems I've got a certain attachment to him, and since we didn't see for 2 months (he worked remotely), we agreed to ...

Hi Stacy,
How are you?

Couldn't sleep too much last night, so all the day was a bit unfocused.

Tried to practice the Doership Exercise, to maybe catch a "flip" you mentioned.

Didn't catch any noticeable flip yet, but noticed it's became harder to find someone who would try to un-see what's seen ...

Hm, yeah... Just noticed, this practice makes me relaxed when "I" try to see/not see - like something is trying to make it happen (to see "something instead"), to make a choice, but then realises that it can't and releases this, accepts all the futility of that attempt... and again, and again ...
