6) What was the last bit that pushed you over, made you look?
I was in a truck waiting in line going thru the experiances I was having. Hands on wheel, eyes seeing,
hearing looking for who is experianceing this and I saw that that was just a thought. The experiances were just experiances. That ...

5) How would you describe it to somebody who has never heard about this illusion.
I have many Christian friends that I love. If I were trying to relate this I would use the Book of Genisis as a guide. Starting with the Garden before the Fall. All beings were alive aware and at peace with no ...

4) How does it feel to see this?

OK, no big deal really. Physically I feel fine, lighter.
More courious than anything else. I'm still absorbing here.
Calm mind experiancing. Very pleasent so far.

2) Explain in detail what the illusion of separate self is, when it starts and how it works.
Separate happens when one experiances subject and object. I guess by labeling. Not sure.
What 's real is objective, when one becomes subjective then illusion can get taken(mistaken) for real.
Difficult to ...

1) Is there a 'me', at all, anywhere, in any way, shape or form? Was there ever?
This is very interesting. No, No one here. "Ever" is a story thought so No to that as well.
The interesting part is the experiance itself. I was having a go round with experiancing experiance.
When it is just experiance ...

One of the common, what shall I say, bumps to true liberation, is identification with awareness.

I spent a time reflecting on this and Yes I was making awareness personal.

One of the common, what shall I say, bumps to true liberation, is identification with awareness. But ALL identity is assumed, given the property of ownership by the mind.

Tell me, does life need an identity?[/quote]

No.
But How can you talk about anything without identifying it in some way ...

My dear Mike, you are the one I have to thank, for giving me the opportunity to be with you, talk with you and walk with you (or the no you :)). There is much love and appreciation on this side.

It is better to write spontaneously, without prior thinking. This keeps the writing 'fresh' and enables ...

You have been so kind and generous here with me that I desire to make a really good account of my experiance to match your gift of attention. It's the conversation that is difficult not so much the experiance. Please give me a day or so to articulate. I do really want to thank you.
Mike

Could you write what you mean by "my life" and who is experiencing it?

My life meaning my experiance(s). This awareness is doing AND being experiancing or witnessing.
