8) Actually look. Does experience belong to the body, or does the body belong to experience?

The body IS experience, it is awareness, it is experience.

9) What did you experience at the moment you awoke?

I felt as if the walls had fallen away. I had always had a feeling of being trapped in my ...

5) What was the last bit that pushed you over, made you look? was there a specific moment when seeing happened or was it gradual? what exactly happened?

It was a gradual process that took years, though until I was asked the questions here seeing was sort of intellectually understood. The questions ...

Hi John! Yes, a few questions at a time does make it easier, so I'll start now.

1) Is there a 'me', at all, anywhere, in any way, shape or form? Was there ever? how about self, is there anything that is separate from everything else?

Not any more, not since I began with the questions here. And ...

Thank you John! There's a lot here to write, so I'll get back to you as soon as its done. I won't be around today, so might be day after tomorrow if I don't get a chance tomorrow (I WILL try). Meanwhile, have a lovely weekend.

Best wishes,
Yaz

Okay John, that's great. Will wait for further questions.
Best wishes!

Hello John! I hope you're doing good out there in the cold!

As can be seen in the text I sent yesterday, there is no thinker and awareness just is. As for the personal aspect, I started on that question, which led to this (check from November 7th entry...we've arrived here today from exploring that ...

Hello John,

First, I have processed a bit more of an 'explanation' for you in terms of 'our lives lived are thoughts lived'. I AM thoughts... meaning awareness IS awareness and awareness IS THOUGHT. Thoughts don't arise. Thoughts just ARE as awareness just IS. Everything just IS. Everything happens ...

Hi John, I've copied a piece of text that I messaged to you when you ask me to explore who the controller is. This will give you an idea of what I'm talking about:
.... I began to observe something interesting. A thought would arise, and I would act. I kept my focus very much on the thought arising ...

Hi John, what I mean by that is, as thoughts 'arise', they determine our movements . i discovered this as I discovered there was no 'I'. Our lives lived are thoughts lived therefore.

Best wishes John!

Hello John. Yes, thoughts arise to no-one, since there is no 'I'. Stories are thoughts. Our lives lived are thoughts lived. Not much else to report!

Best wishes!

Thank you John!

Thank you John! Have a relaxing Sunday. I'll await any other questions if you have any.

Hello John! Today, everything is so clear. I've been busy helping out my husband with his work overload, it is my daughter's birthday, and I'm slap bang in the middle of an every-day blog month, so things are crazy. Throughout it all was a clear calmness (unusual for me) in which I realized there is ...

Hello John, just to let you know, I am still following my minds antics and how the conditions are laid out. It is very fascinating, and I am finding expression difficult. I woke in the night immersed in the question (strange?) and saw the whole play of the mind so clearly but by morning the absolute ...

Yes John, what you say is right (I am only understanding this intellectually as I write this). I AM laying out conditions. But I still need to experience the truth of that. I will get back to you when that happens. Thank you for pushing me further and further. This is a truly wonderful experience ...
