At the same time, there is a great silence. Silence says it all so beautifully, yet still we talk.
If silence said something, it would not be silence.
It is the self who internally manufactures conclusions about silence that is doing the saying, not silence.
Silence says nothing.

You are in good hands with StephVen, AC... thanks for the interesting posts since I first said goodbye.

Happy trails to you.....

I just figured out\saw why I was having trouble with the forum...both in threads and PMs...
I am fortunate to be connected to the oldest fone exchange in tassie and i can only run dialup...a really slow and glitchy rendition of it.
(On bad days even the google search page takes 30 seconds to fire up ...

PS: They are the same unreal, faux, false, illusory self, silly.

May your sails be full and the wind at your back.
I agree that the self that observes the self is the same one self.
But where in the exercise of self observation does the idea that there is no self come from , seeing as there is a ...

Opps! Forgot to tell you: 'No self to unleash' means one simply sees that the self that sees there's no self is seen to be an illusion, a labeled mind construct. Then easy or hard to ignore, depending.

Happy sailing AC.
Thanks for what i regard as a confirmation that there is a self("one") that ...

Who unleashes themself? A self does.
Who looks? A self does.
Who sees there is no self to unleash? A self does.

Chris said it's not about removing nouns.
Looks to me that is all you people do here.
It's verbal slight of hand.
But then ...

Dearest Alternate Carpark...

It is with great gladness I drop out of this thread. You are in a thread with another, and it has my blessing, which of course it does not need. The gladness is for the potential it presents.
You commit yourself to help, then back out of this commitment.
You give my ...

When you first responded to the questions about your interests here at LU you said:
My expectations are to understand the theory of no self and how that equates to liberation and awakening.( two different meanings in my mind)
'Cus if i cannot comprehend the concept i cannot proceed with the ...

Hello AC. Sorry for the delay.

Yes, please call me Lisa.

No probs Lisa, I prefer to take my time when exploring the unknown.

Let's get clear about these things and proceed accordingly.

i like the sound of this, and will respond to all of your post tomorrow as it's offline time for me.

Hi AC. Good to see you here. I like to start with the basics:
Hello Anki.
~sighs~...basics..again?
I will ask questions, give examples, and direct you through some experiential exercises. Your job is to be as honest as you are able, and to report in at least once a day, if possible (even if it's ...

I have to do this 'cus this forum does not have a standard edit feature, or i can't find it.
Chris did not accuses me of being a liar, not a lair. That would be silly.
I usually don't bother with typos, I make a ton of them, but 'cus this forum hasn't got an edit feature, or i can't find it, i ...

I already have one question Anki.

Unleash yourself. Look. No self to unleash.

Your sig...how can a self be unleashed if there in no self to unleash?
It's like saying, go outside because you already are.

I very much would have liked to discuss your accusations that i am a liar and cannot or refuse to see.
But it appears my suspicions are confirmed...you are not willing to.
Though i appreciate your effort in trying to explain the 'no self' theory Chris.
I have to do this 'cus this forum does not ...

Hi AC. Please begin by telling me what interests you about the recognition of no self. You wrote a lot in the previous thread, so it will be fine to just briefly say what your interest is now. We'll go point by point. This is the start.

Hello Anki.
This is a thread i am participating in, but it's ...
