Hey Elad,

WHAT AM I?

I repeated the exercise a few times, but this time what was noticed was much more subtle than before. It was more about the lack of thoughts, sensations, etc., rather than what was coming up. There was a sense of neutral openness and a very subtle feeling of something ...

Hi Elad, thank you!

When asking "what am I?", what is noticed repeatedly is a sensation of a gentle glow/flow across the body, especially in the throat, chest, and stomach areas. It comes with a sense of calm, connection, and expansiveness.

As a side note, this sensation (especially around the ...

What am I? :)


Okay Geza, we are rolling :)

If you where to just stay with one question that feels deep to you heart and leave aside any attempts at intellectual understanding, what would that question be?

Here are some options/examples:

Who am I?

What am I?

What is Self?

What is This ...

Thank you, Elad!

The experience consists of seeing, thoughts, sensations, and at times, a sense of awakening from a dream. It’s unclear why this specific sense (of awakening) feels so special, though, since it contains the same seeing, hearing, etc., as always. It comes with a sense of expansion ...

Hey Elad,

I feel confused. It all seemed "so close" before this last pointer.

When saying it out loud, excitement comes first but then shifts into hesitation. Doubt arises about whether I've actually been seeing over the past few weeks or if seeing has turned into just another belief. However ...

Thanks for the gentleness☺️🤓

To your question:
Nothing is not right in DE. THIS is already complete.
THIS is “just” is (if that makes any sense).

When looking at the label “not right” then there’s this sense that such term can’t even “touch” (get close to) what IS.

When it seems like ...

Hey Elad, 😊☀️

What self? Is there actually a self that gets in the way? Or what does the word refer to? What is actually there, getting in the way, when it seems like something is getting in the way?

Thoughts arise that I'm going in circles, and I'm not even sure anymore what is what (within LU ...

Hey Elad,
Thanks!

For the next day notice how whatever is happening just happens by itself and whatever is happening IS the expression of clarity now, IS the doorway to clarity and freedom NOW.


This resonates! It’s noticed that what’s happening is the expression of clarity. It’s also noticed ...

Thank you🙏

The shift from suffering being the norm to ease being predominant is seeing things as they are, without the old filtering mechanism running as strongly. When resistance and distraction does show up, can it be seen as just another movement within the same flow?

Yes, resistance and ...

Hey Elad, Thank you!

This last pointer triggered some resistance. The story was that it’s a too complicated exercise, and it’s too hard. But then those thoughts were seen, and so there was a sense of “dropping back” and ease.

-It was noticed that This is actually already stable on its own, so ...

Thanks, Elad🙏

Thoughts/parts negotiate with high intensity (IFS vibes), each competing to be believed as the ultimate truth. Sneaky indeed. This can go on for a shorter or longer time. But then there's a shift, and they're seen for what they are: stories, beliefs. All of them.

Then a wish arises ...

Thanks for these beautiful pointers🙏

Now, that "shift"—openness, spaciousness, relief. Is the shift something new happening— or is it something not happening? Like habitual lostness in thoughts for a moment not happening?

Exactly as you says: it’s the habitual lostness not happening. But only ...

Hey Elad,

Thank you!

There’s seeing (through my glasses), hearing (the road), feeling (sensation in my stomach), and thinking happening. I don’t see any self here, only the activities themselves are noticed.

During some activities, there’s more comfort (e.g. when having a walk) or less (e.g. when ...

Thanks Elad!

Most of the time, there seems to be no awareness of “I”. Then, from time to time, briefly and suddenly, something shifts: there’s a sense that something transforms. Perhaps a shift of perspective?

At this moment of shift, it is noticed that activities were performed, just until now ...

Hi Elad,
Thanks for the re-invite.🙏 I feel ready.

The below suggestions by you feel right.
As for freedom, I would like to keep the exercises to weekdays and experiment with the frequency. I'm happy to start with daily and then see how that works. Is that ok with you?

Thank you
Geza
