The Gate

Hi Statum. :)

Here are the final questions I mentioned the other day:

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

2) Explain in detail what the illusion of separate self is, when it starts and how it works from your own ...

Ok, where in the body is that fear felt?

In the throat, chest, and stomach.

Could you elaborate? This sounds like the understanding is more of an intellectual one.

I could only say that there is a fear of not knowing.

Very nicely put!
How does it feel to know that?

There is fear of not knowing where I am or how I can know myself.

Please describe the relation between noticing and the noticed.
Please note that you describe it from your direct perception of what is here and now.

I can’t find any difference between what notices and what is noticed. From direct perception, it just appears. No subject until a subject is ...

Hi Seth. :)

What is it that is noticing all those?

I can’t say, but if I had to say it would just be that noticing is noticing what is noticed.

Please inquire further.

Hey Kento!

I am giving attention to the sounds of the room and notice that there is a subtle ringing in my ears. I give that ringing attention and then there is the noticing of tingling in my hands. Then thoughts appear, then there are feet on the floor, and back to the ...

Hi Seth. :)

Great! Now, if you were asked to answer what it is anyway, how would you answer?

I would say that it is awareness.

Thanks. :) Let's try again.

Do you still feel the frustration?
Please feel that sense of frustration. Which part in the body, if any, do you feel it?

Hey Kento!

This week I have been trying to find what it is that is aware of changing awareness. I don’t know what is behind awareness that is ...

There’s nothing wrong with anything and even the sense of something being wrong is perfect.

Is this understanding intellectual?

Yes it is. Both “perfect” and “something wrong” are intellectual.

Ok, please feel that sense of frustration. Which part in the body, if any, do you feel it?

As I was feeling into frustration, I welcomed the sensation to stay for as long as it wanted to. There was then a sense that the frustration was perfect in and of itself. The same could be said about ...

Please inquire further on the question, and let's see what comes
There is the sense of frustration at trying to find words to post on the forum. There is a struggle to have anything to add to experience.

Please inquire further on the question, and let's see what comes up.

As I inquire into the sound of my hand, it sounds innocent, unknowing, and spontaneous like a child.

Is it happening?

I don’t know how to respond to that question other than to say yes.

Is it "moving" that's happening?

It’s happening that is happening. Movement and happening mean the same thing.
