Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

About the love experience i told you, i guess i just wanted to share it. I had tons of flashy spiritual experiences but now there are more just simple obvious and yet so deep. Like seeing god without all the glitter but as an obvious fact. I also noticed a pattern of clinging to pleasurable ...

Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

Hey, couple of updates

this got deeper. Working with question "was there ever a self" is really bringing out the juices today. There was still a big part of seeing it as a state. So asking if this is a state or just recognizing nature of myself that was always here really helps. BEcause it's not ...

Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

Hey

It's clear that I is an illusion. Sometimes however i encounter some I-thoughts with lot of attachment so it might take a moment to see through them.

"It is a thought about how the experience has been unfolding. "
translates to:
-it is an interpretation of past experiences.


Hugs Filip

Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

HI, of course i will answer ;)

Q4: "I see that all my life was kind of scripted for this to happen."
Is this real or a thought?

yeah, it is just a point of view. not the ultimate reality ;) It is a thought about how the experience has been unfolding.

"There are just images, thoughts, concepts ...

Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

Haha, i thought you were asking for examples to understand my question better :))


ok, so for example: there is a choice in what i will eat today. So there are limited options -how much time can be spent, what shops/restaurants are nearby etc. There are certain things that i imagine to taste better ...

Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

hey, that last question fallen away ;) new question is:

is it normal that even though i see there is no me, i dont always recognize the space consciously? I mean there are moments where everything feels solid, and for example i have no idea what the word consciousness means (in direct experience ...

Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

5) Do you decide, intend, choose, control events in life? Do you make anything happen? Give examples from your experience.

There is no separate entity that could do anything, and it includes choosing and intending. Choosing and intending itself exist but there is no separate decider and intender ...

Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

I see that all my life was kind of scripted for this to happen. about a year ago this process intensified. there were very strong waves of wanting to wake up, coming and going. what was the last bit? i have watched video on batgap.com (same site from where ive found out about liberation unleashed ...

Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

Hey,

yes, now i understand. I feel like this right now.

3) How does it feel to see this? What is the difference from before you started this dialogue? Please report from the past few days.

There is no difference actually. Big amount of seeking stopped. Felt a bit dissapointed right after, but ...

Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

hey thanks for the reply. i didnt understand this sentence "because any time there is an apparent question about it, it is so easy to look."

2) Explain in detail what the illusion of separate self is, when it starts and how it works from your own experience. Describe it fully as you see it now.

I ...

Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

Just one more observation. seeing that i am the space in which things are happening, the presence, hovewer you call it - is not really that obvious. it's more like sometimes noticing that it is this way. from that it is very clear and simple, but in my experience, seeing yourself as spaciousness ...

Re: Giving another shot, looking for a guide

thank you for the reply!

1) Is there a separate entity 'self', 'me' 'I', at all, anywhere, in any way, shape or form? Was there ever?

No there is not. There are just images, thoughts, concepts. But they are very untested. It's really hard to write something else for this yes/no question... how ...
