Hello Nona,

When I search for "Nona Parry" on Facebook, I have 3 results. I think that you are the one who is listed as being in Pasadena, although your page mentions Wellington, like on this forum. If that's correct, it looks like I can only click "like" and there is no friend link. How does that ...

Hi Nona,

Thanks for letting me know! I'll join Facebook in the coming days and will make sure to friend you.

Looking forward to the next phase!

Love,

Philippe

Hello Nona,

Here are the answers to your questions:

1) Is there a 'me', at all, anywhere, in any way, shape or form? Was there ever?
In my present experience, there is no "me" anywhere, in any way, shape or form. I cannot answer the question "Was there ever?" from a direct experience point of ...

Hello Nona,

Thank you for your kind words. It has been a pleasure to work with you. I liked the clear and compassionate guidance.

I will follow your suggestion and join Facebook.

And I will respond to the 5 questions tomorrow.

With much appreciation,

Philippe

Hello Nona,

What is it about fear that you have decided to dislike?
That's a really good question. I see fear as an obstacle in my life, as preventing me to do what I want. I also see it as creating a lot of confusion and doubt, which I don't like for the same reasons. I agree with you that in ...

Hello Nona,

i remind you again of the fan; when the power is switched off, the blades continue to turn, but ever more slowly until they stop.
Yeah, I guess I need some more patience for the blades to stop! I am kind of trying to reach to them and stop them forcefully. Quite an unpleasant ...

Hello Nona,

Another late evening, with not much energy to respond.

I read your post this morning though and appreciated the time you took to respond to all my worries!

I'll get back to you tomorrow.

Love,

Philippe

Hello Nona,

I appreciate your curiosity about the fear I experience. I think it is a very old fear that is the result of the environment I grew up in. Basically, there is a part of me that is really concerned that I might be a bad person. It keeps me in a state close to hyper-vigilance and doubt ...

Hey Nona,

Thanks for your detailed response. I think that your previous post and this post have clarified a lot of things for me. It's pretty late here and I just came back home. As I want to reply thoroughly to your post, I'll do it tomorrow morning. I hope that's ok with you.

I wish you a good ...

Hello Nona,

We are almost home, dear!
When I read this, fear arises. It's as if a part of me does not want to believe it. It is as if, reading the rest of your email, I had to give up all my hopes for a better future (for both myself, others and the world -- I know, big agenda) On one side, there ...

Hello Nona,

Ok, I'll start with your last question, because it pointed something quite interesting out to me .

Question: without a 'you' anywhere in life, isn't simply going along with what's happening easier?
My whole body reaction was to twist and then a big NO came. Then my mind said very ...

Hello Nona,

As long as you're finding it Refreshing, no harm. Check it! Is it refreshing? or just reinforcing old stories?
I like the distinction. I think it's more the latter...

Could you stop looking with your mind and instead LOOK with your eyes, your vision?
Thanks for the suggestion. I ...

Hello Nona,

I feel a bit despondent today. I have a hard time mustering the will to simply look. I seemed to "wallow" in my thoughts today. There is some comfort in that, but at the same time, I know it's not what I want. So I also feel frustrated and confused on how to proceed. OK, not so confused ...

Hi Nona,

Thank you for your kind words and support.

Check it dear. And be kind. It really is just a matter of SEEing that 'self' is an illusion with no basis in reality.

Two things are happening now: I am more apt at seeing thoughts that I identified strongly with. Thoughts that direct me to ...

Hello Nona,

Today was a difficult day; feeling achy, tired, confused and frustrated.

So the payoff for clinging to untrue stories is another story. Is it true? Is it true that to be a 'good' person, to pass that judgment on the idea of Philippe, that there is an "I" that needs control??

No, it ...
