Hi Stacy!

I am just following up on this! :)

Here we go!

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

No, there is no separate entity ‘self’, ‘me’ ‘I’ at all anywhere. There never was.

2) Explain in detail what the illusion of separate self is, when it starts and ...

Hy Stacey! This has not been forgotten, "i" will send a response later tomorrow night. thank you!

Yes! Thank you for your patience and your time 🙏

I am ready for the final questions :)

Yes, I see. There is no real "me". It's just thoughts and conditioning. I was listening to the pointers at work, pointer's you;ve provided, and llona's pointers on youtube as well. Observations: there is just body and mind, the actions are just happening, when the body felt thirsty, it grabbed a ...

Hi there,

Sense of self is just the content of thought. How could you know of it without thought?
If the sense of self is just the content of thought, there would be no way to know of it without thought. However, looking back, I think I was doing the exercise differently. I was trying to find ...

Thank you very very much! I listened to the introduction and a couple of the meditation recordings before arriving and it helped a lot during the retreat. We were doing a dyad practice and samantha felt very close to a realization before the bell rang.

Thank you.

Got it!

Yes, I remember that one from before but thank you for bringing it up again. I’ve been paying more attention to what happening in the body. Different sensations.

I’ve been looking at the pointers on the app

Hi! I am very sorry I never received an email notification that you responded and thought something happened. I checked for a few days after my last response and didn’t see anything.

I felt a lot of fear but I’d need to go there again to see what exactly I felt— contraction, heavy or light. It ...

is dissociation normal? I've been feeling uncomfortable.

I've been reading the book and listening to Ilona's podcast. For the first time today, I felt able to look at Samantha's character from a distance. When someone said something today that she felt hurt her self-image, the thoughts kept repeating over and over again in her mind. However, she was able ...
