Ok Vince, thank you

1. Is there a 'me', at all, anywhere, in any way shape or form? Was there ever?
There is nothing there at all. No I is anywhere in any way, shape or form . How could there have ever been any I any where, ever when it never existed to begin with.
2) Explain in detail what the illusion of separate ...

Hi Vince,
No, I don't see the illusion because there is nothing to see. It's like the heat wave on the highway. It seems it is there when you are away from it but when you get to where it might have been there is nothing there. Does that make sense? I really see that it is a label for communication ...

Hi Vince, I have been asking with everything that comes up in day to day life...where is the I in this, show the I in this. There is nothing that comes up. Nothing is seen or shown. I would start to say there is almost a void, but that would be something, there is no thing there. I have no ...

Would appreciate the help...thank you

Ok
I have looked. I don't see anything there, nothing.

Yes I hear you

Well hell! Since there is no Lonni then why the hell should I be nice any more? I was raised with the morals that a person should treat others as they would like to be treated. Well...if there is no me and there is no them what the fuck does it matter??? Why should we care how nice we are to others ...

I was watching a bird today and noticing it was flying in an erratic pattern. Then I noticed it was chasing a moth. I laughed and laughed. I could see that it was just automatic for the bird. It saw a snack and just went for it. The moth was just doing what it does. There was no thing to orchestrate ...

No where. I'm running thru the memories but I dont find any one there that these things happened to.

Well, I wrote a whole paragraph to you but I deleted it. It was just shit of me being amicable. Oooo, so much anger right now. So, all the experiences, life lessons, the joys, the sadness, all these things that have made up my life do not exist. I understand that they are the past and the past does ...

Lol at the lions have no self and they do okay. It's easier to see through the idea of an animal and how they have no self. They just are. They have needs, patterns, and I believe they even have wants. But they don't have anything running those things for them...they just do them. "I" have a glimpse ...

Hello StepVhen,
Well first I would find what I wanted to achieve. Then I would research it, find out everything I can about it. Next, I make the first step toward the goal. Hmm, that's funny. Thoughts are going and going about what steps to take to achieve this goal. Then the thought appears...that ...

I'm trying to drop the illusion of self. I have been reading the book and just becoming so frustrated. How can there not be an I to achieve our goals? How can there not be an I that sets up those goals? Without an I are we just at the mercy of whatever happens? I have such a strong fear that without ...
