Before going to sleep, I was lying in my bed, tried to argue/rationalize the existence of awareness (All possible scenarios I can think of). Then, realized that all my arguments, thoughts, experiences, I am aware of them, then, I keep saying to any thought that came to mind, I see you, then you are ...

I do not know what to say or think or do. I more confused now. Realization does not need belief, right? Even, if I make myself believe, then, for how long? So, in the example of snake and rope, I have not seen the rope yet.

Best,

For past few weeks, I came to know about self-inquiry and no-self realization, the topic fascinated me and grabbed my attention, I start doing practice and thinking about it. But, I now think that I am wasting my time and it must be better utilized in my job/work hours for career growth, this is ...

Correct, feeling that there is no separation between body and chair is also thought, so, that mean there is no separation? So, how does the feeling that there is no separation arises? Something is aware of about this thought.

Best,

How does it FEEL to see no division?

I feel that there is no separation between body and chair, cannot say where the body ends and chair starts.

Yes, continuing the exercise, I feel that it is just sensation with no clear division.

Please LOOK for any place where your butt ends & the chair begins.
Is there any clear dividing line between them? Or only the Sensation with no clear division?

Best,

Thanks for sharing resources. I read the 10 fetters and youtube video you shared. Make Sense to me.

So, this is the end of our conversation?

Best,

Can you begin to see that "self" is nothing but the lie feeling & thought?
No, not yet, I have the conceptual clarity but not actual realization yet


Do you have a clear picture in mind?
Yes, White shiny plain porcelain cup with a handle, no pattern

Now, can you physically grasp that image of ...

Then how can you be sure it even exists?

Agreed, I cannot be sure if it exists or not.

Can you see this?

Yes, Sensation of contraction, thought, label, are experiences not self.

Best,

Where, exactly., is that?

I don't know, it feels like it is somewhere around head

Can you show it to another person?

No, I cannot
