Re: Seeing through the illusion of self
Michael,
You're welcome, I look forward to it. So for my time, let's do Monday at 8pm CT. Which I believe is 8am your time on Tuesday.
Please let me know if you have a paid zoom account we can meet on. Otherwise, we can do skype - send me your email / account name. If you don't have skype ...

Re: Seeing through the illusion of self
Michael,
sorry for late reply again. I was almost resentful towards you suggesting I might have seen through the illusion. It feels like the seeing is no clearer than it was when I first stumbled upon nonduality. Feels even less clear. Back then I could at least dilute myself into imagining some ...

Re: Seeing through the illusion of self
Michael,
So realizing this is impossible. Realization being just another misleading word. So what the hell is this about then?
What does the hearing, seeing, feeling have to say about this? When you don't refer to a thought, what the hell is this about?
Everything just more thoughts that “I ...

Re: Define real
Hey, Thats okay Liz, life happens.
see, when all this all this energetic and consciousness stuff happened initially. How do I say this?.. I started being able to do “things” and it can get de-calibrated (if that’s a word) when something is off in my system ?.. it can get weird and end up like a ...

Re: Seeing through the illusion of self
Michael,
Yes this lapsing back into the I is an automatic habituated process.
Is there an 'I' or some entity that's 'lapsing back' into identity? Otherwise, what is happening in direct experience when you speak of this 'lapsing back into the I'.
Yes but some thoughts feel very sticky ...

Rube,
Sweet. Let's go. I'm curious, too! Like I mentioned before, I think it was difficult for us guides to understand your writing, so let's really emphasize clarity here. Please clarify when differentiating between what is real and illusion by using phrases such as:

Re: Awakening Saxophonist
Hey Dimos,
I can say doubt still arises and catches hold here. I imagine/hear it fully settles at some point. But more importantly...
It's about seeing through doubt and inquiring - who is caught up in this doubt? Who is the doubt referring to? Is there a doubter? ... What is doubt made up of? Is ...

Rube,
As I see it, we're struggling to decipher whether some of your writing is referring to the illusion of self or what you believe to be reality/true.
Based on this, our guiding community is not ready to confirm your 'crashing of the gate' so to speak. Are you interested in engaging a bit ...

Re: Seeing through the illusion of self
Michael,
Here's what came up about "what is a hand?"
It is what I use to interact with the environment
It’s to grab things
It’s made out of bones and flesh
It can feel
I can move and control it
It has nails and five fingers
It has joints
It’s connected to my arm
There are two of them on a human ...

Hey Rube,
Thanks for the message, still interacting with other guides trying to assess your writing. As I see it, we're struggling to decipher whether some of your writing is referring to the illusion of self or what you believe to be reality/true.
I'll be back in touch in the coming days.

Re: Seeing through the illusion of self
MIchael,

Re: Freedom unfettered
Rube,
Relating to the examples, you write "what is actually happening is what thought says is so". What do you mean by this?
What I mean is that 'what is actually happening' cannot be touched by words, or thought's content at least I struggle to convey or describe it because it becomes, as some ...
