Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Wonderful - thank you so much for everything!

And thanks for the extra content. Indeed, clearing up old beliefs is on!

As for guiding, hmmm, would definitely be a good way to both deepen my integration of it all and pay back to community. That said, time time time... 4 daughters, 1 job ...

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Wonderful! Thanks!

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

Whenever we look for an 'I', we fail to find one. No identifiable 'Actor' or 'Subject' can be found. And there never was.


2) Explain in detail what the ...

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Amazing; thanks!
Is there anything else we can explore together? If not we have some traditional final questions. Would you like to answer those?
Yes, let's have the final questions :)!!

Thanks a lot for everything!

All the best,
David

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Hahaha, step by step 😊!

My computer crashed again at final moment… have to look into this. Herewith slightly abbreviated version :).

And was travelling, but finally made it to the hotel. Tomorrow may be difficult as entire 'work-shop' day (here in Valencia). Wednesday and Thursday should ...

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Thanks a lot!!

OK what is that “I” that chooses which realm to live in? Can you see that what you’re saying doesn’t make any sense.

Yes, didn't put it right. Thought content often runs along these old patterns. Thinking is happening. No 'I' to find.

Can you choose to ignore thoughts ...

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

HI Rali,

Thanks a lot!

Hmmm, tricky.

Here we go:

I see that all there is is the experiencing. But that doesn't mean I live in this lofty realm every second of the day now.

Do you agree??? Can the awareness of seeing be separated from the seeing? Can there be awareness without object?

I fully ...

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Haha, I’ve never been gone; only away. Indulging in and Enduring Direct Experience 😊.

Thanks for the comments

Again, is “awareness” a container for sensations (colours, thoughts, sounds, etc)? Are there “solid” sensations flowing around, “emerging and fading”? LOOK!

Awareness ...

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Seems like I lost my draft... so be it...

Here we go again.

How can “you” maintain it if you are not in control of it? Will “you” ever be in control of it? Do you believe that there is an I that can wake up or be awake?
What is it that could be awake?
What is it that awakening could ...

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

We definitely are, but I'm only halfway through the task (and been working + flying back from US just now).

Will try and get you something by this evening.

Thanks!

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Thanks a lot! I'll again need some time responding as I need to put in the time to do it properly and this wedding WE in Charleston is not giving me much of that. Hopefully tomorrow. Or Monday.

Thanks

Take care & Enjoy the WE!

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Thanks a lot!

Wrote it in the airport and the plane yesterday, but couldn't send before now. Sorry! Feels like I'm getting very close though :)

Here we go:

First of all, are they really “your” thoughts? What exactly makes them yours? You said that you cannot control them. Are you the ...

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Caught in a bit of a work-storm, but trying to answer asap. Need to do this properly and don't want to rush it.

Flying to the US tomorrow, so will have ample time on the plane.

If I can find the time, I'll still try to do it this afternoon.

So sorry for the delay here!!

Thanks

Love ...

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Great stuff, thanks!

I went question by question and you may find it lacking in coherence, as first I seem to get 'it' or 'there', to then be thrown off balance a bit with the final 2 questions. Wanted to leave it exactly as I worked through it. Thank you so much!!

But does the actual ...

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Solid rhythm :).

Thanks a lot!

Is “awareness” a container for sensations (colours, thoughts, sounds, etc)? Are there “solid” sensations floating around, “emerging and fading”? Is the knowing/being aware of sensations separate from the sensations? Is there a visible border? Where does ...

Re: The spectator self, at the very least :)

Hi Rali,

Thanks a lot!

Once again, sorry for delay here. Was in Amsterdam and juggling a lot of stuff. As you say, life happens...

So are there two sensations (!! without thought) – “fingers” and “cold can”? Where is the border that separates the one from the other?

There is 1 sensation - No ...
