Hello Andrea,

Your expectations are rather reasonable, but, that said, all expectations can be a barrier. That is why it is great to get them out and look at them, and set them down as best you can. There are probably more which will rise to the surface later… every book and video and satsang ...

with love and gratitude back

❤️

But still, this question remains unanswered for me.

Who needs the answer and in what form would it ever come?

Who monitors the knowing? Or is responsible for understanding?

Home run Liam

Can you find an inherent self anywhere, outside of thought?

Hi Jen,

Yes, am well, really feeling this lovely transition into fall season right now.

I really love the way you are working with the body in this report. ❤️


It’s all thought, but I’m still having a hard time with thought, like hmm are no thoughts true? They seem to describe how things appear ...

Here's an exercise that I would like you to try as many times throughout the day as you can. Label daily activities simply color/image, sound, smell, taste, sensation, thought.

So for example, when having breakfast, become aware of:
Seeing a cup, simply= image/color
Smelling coffee, simply = smell ...

Hello Whitney,

But notice the thought appearing that it is pointless. Is this True?
No, but it just seems like a mental exercise to bypass anything uncomfortable that arises. I'm still using thought. Just telling myself it's ok if something uncomfortable happens because "uncomfortable and me" are ...

Lovely,

What name would you like to be called here?

To begin, let’s investigate expectations for this process.

1. What do you think will be different when you realize there’s no separate self?

2. What do you expect to happen as a result of this?

3. What do you want not to happen?

4. What are ...

1. Close the eyes and hold up one hand. Pay attention only to the felt sensations ‘of the hand’.

2. Open the eyes, and now observe the hand by looking only.

3. While looking at the hand, pay attention to the felt sensations.

Repeat 1 to 3 as many times as needed and investigate…

Normally we ...

Is there anyone to reside ‘IN this’? Can you catch the movement of a self who comes and goes?

Hello!

Thanks for your patience in waiting for a guide. I would be happy to be with you in this inquiry.

Are you ready to get started?
And willing to set down all the books, teachings and accumulated spiritual knowledge for the duration of this process? :)

With love,
Becca

In the middle of the entanglement, when you stop, and LOOK, do you see?


if the real realization is once you really see that there is no self you can't possibly identify with it again, then I don't know where I'm at

Is there a future being chased where there is certainty? Where everything is ...

hahahahaha

Can any ‘insight’ be owned?

Can insight or ownership exist at all without thought?

What is here right now? Take a look.

Though I don't know what's going on actually.


Great, haha

:)
What is the direct, lived experience of this?


At times a small voice interprets this as "oh, I wish Becc as here to...?"


What is the thought overlay on Bec?

Is the yearning owned or free?



The anchor is believing thoughts ...

There is no separate me, so it doesn’t go anywhere.

:)

I’m not quite sure what you mean by direct experience?


Direct Experience is:
Seeing
Hearing
Feeling (not emotion - emotion is sensation plus thoughts/labels)
Tasting
Smelling
Thoughts Arising (but not their content, what the ...
