There is awareness of all experiences (thoughts feelings and the body moving). There isn’t a control pad, but it does seem like I choose one decision or another sometimes, even though there is no me to make a decision. Hence the confusion. I know I can’t be making the decision, but it feels like ...

I am struggling with the concept of responsibility.

Nothing can be done to be in alignment with consciousness; I suppose I meant intention. Surely the intention to be part of the whole rather than running amok as an imagined individual preprogrammed ‘self’ is important?

My words and actions do ...

No, there is no ‘me’ that is responsible. But this body can either be in service to ‘a higher power’, or just running on programming.

No, there is no thinker, I don’t do thinking. Thoughts just arise and are seen.

Thanks.

I wasn’t sure what you meant by ‘you’ 🤣.

The conglomeration of beliefs and memories etc that I used to think of as ‘me’ isn’t responsible for anything, as it isn’t a thing. But ‘I’ am responsible for everything in my experience.

For example, I make an inquiry, then listen. Sometimes I ...

Hi Merlin, thanks for getting back to me, but I’m not sure what you mean. Will someone let me know what to do next? Thanks.

Hi Merlin, I'm so sorry I've taken so long to answer these questions. I am really struggling with this. I don't know how to answer some of them.


Is there a separate entity 'self', 'me' 'I', at all, anywhere, in any way, shape or form?
Was there ever?
No there is not and never was.


Describe ...

Thanks, more guided inquiry would be helpful, and I’d also like to do the ‘final questions’ and apply to join the facebook group.

Thank you! Yes, I have the book A Course in Miracles, I haven't read it for a few years, I'll have a look at it again. I don't know what the final questions are, but yes, I would like to do whatever I need to so I can join the facebook group, and guide others when I'm ready.

Haha! I am awareness whatever. There is still a sense of a separate identity which seems to get in the way sometimes. I suppose that’s just a habit, and it seems less important now.

Thank you so much for your guidance!

Yes, I meditate in all environments, as often as possible. I’ve never been in a sensory deprivation tank, but I have often thought about it. I might just look into that and see what it’s like.

The fear has gone and I will have to deal with the people concerned as the situations crop up, in the moment. I’m not worried about it any more.

I’m spending quite a lot of time meditating and staying with what comes up. It seems to be just flowing through me.

Yes, things are getting much better. There is less unnecessary suffering and more clarity.

No one can stay as awareness, awareness is always aware because that’s what it is. It seems like I’m doing something to get back to awareness, in order to be aware of experiencing, but really I am ‘not doing’, ie not identifying with experiencing. So the next thing is, I desperately want to be not ...

Yes, sorry, I just didn’t know which one you were referring to. I’ve been following the thread of numerous feelings over the last few days. Each one starts with a physical sensation, then usually a thought label as an emotional type of feeling, then when I just stay in awareness and let the thé ...
