Re: What's with this "I"
Janine, thank you for your time. I'm having difficulties with my family. I need to figure it out completely. I think we need to postpone our communication. since now, my head is full of something else entirely. Thank you very much for your time.

Re: What's with this "I"
Here are my observations:
I'm thinking about feeding my cat - it's a fantasy.
When I pour food for him and think about the fact that I pour food for the cat, this is reality.
I look at my cat who asks to be given something to eat and I think that he is hungry - this is a fantasy.
When I stroke him ...

Re: What's with this "I"
Hi Janine. Thank you for your time. I apologize for not responding immediately.
Do you expect thinking to cease with “awakening from the illusion of a separate self?”
I don't expect thinking to stop on its own, I'd like to focus less on it.

Re: What's with this "I"
Let’s try an exercise.
Recall a recent time when you felt sad. See if you can capture a moment, a snippet in time.
In a paragraph describe the situation. Where you were. What you were doing. A brief summary of the content of your thoughts. How you were feeling, emotionally. Let your words take me ...

Re: What's with this "I"
Hi, Janine
Imagine the sound of a small stream.
Is there anyway possible to convey this sound without using the label, “small stream?”
Does any label do more than meekly point to a felt experience?
If you remove the label "little stream", then only the murmur will remain. Murmuring is also a ...

Re: What's with this "I"
Hi Janine, I've been thinking about your questions, and here's what I've got.
If you are nothing more than a thought arising in mind, what is left when the thought recedes?
After the thought disappears, everything will remain the same. And if I think in the context of me, then my body and mind ...

Re: What's with this "I"
Hello Janine!
I apologize in advance, because English is not my native language, and I am resorting to the help of an interpreter, and perhaps I somehow misinterpreted some question.
So, here are the answers to the questions you sent me.
Why do you wish to “get rid of the imaginary me?”
I think it ...

What's with this "I"
LU is focused guiding for seeing there is no real, inherent 'self' - what do you understand by this?
What I mean by this is that "I" is nothing more than a fiction that our minds have established. I am the designation of a state of consciousness that requires identification and belonging to ...
