T...is there some sort of technical problem going on with the site? On my screen here it is showing answers to all your questions.

Q...Would it be true to say 'you' are a ' Buddhist ?
A...So since 'I' no longer really know who 'I' am it is difficult to say anything for sure about 'me'. I suppose I even wonder what is a Buddhist ? There is that degree of questioning going on. I imagine for convention's sake 'I' will continue to ...

Q...Who saw this - who is happy about it ?
A... Well the chap who lives at number 14a saw this. I really no longer 'know' who 'I' am , so looking back , as it were 'I' hve only this fleeting memory of me seeing no-self, that there actually is no self. So it was Dharmavira as he was a few weeks ago ...

Q...how do your present findings compare with your expectations of what a Buddhist might achieve?
A...I no longer really know anything for sure. Perhaps with the proviso that I do know that something is quite different. I think I used to expect awakening to be this big cosmic bang....now in ...

9/Q... Describe your experience in the hours and days following awakening ?
A...It has been a total rollercoaster. I am fortunate to be part of a Buddhist community where some friends really understant awakening . So I have gravitated towards people who i know will understand. I have been full of ...

8/ Q...what did you experience at the moment you woke up from self-view ?
A... Laughter, followed by the thought "that's it"....there is no-self ! Followed by the desire to share it with someone who would understand.

7/Q... Is the experiencer experiencing, or is there only experience ? Actually look. Does experience belong to the body, or does the body belong to experience ?
A...There is only experience.It seem's like the body is contained in consciousness so it looks like the body is part of experience , yes ...

6/ Q... When you say "I" what are you refering to ?
A... Now that's a good question ! It's not so easy to say.
'I' am no longer here !
'I' is an illusion that I used to believe !
'I' no longer applies ...gone beyond, although 'I' realise this is just the start of something new.

Everything seem's ...

5/Q...what was the last bit that pushed you over, really made you look? Was there a specific moment when seeing happened?
A...It was when 'I' was getting guided by Jowate. On investigating no-self while sitting in the chair at home it suddenly dawned on me the truth of no-self. So it was fairly ...

4/Q...how would you describe it to somebody who has never heard about this illusion but is curious about it?
A...So the first point is, that it is an illusion.Our mind takes for granted the assumption that because things are apparently 'out there' that we are seperate, 'in here' as it were. The mind ...

3/Q...How does it feel to see through this ? Describe in detail.
A...On first glimpe of no-self the immediate sense was relief release and laughter. An overwhelming sense of peace at last ! It's SO simple , brings a smile to the lips.
As the weeks have rolled on , it's been one of amazment and at ...

2/ Q...Explain in detail what the illusion of seperate self is, when it starts and how it works ?
A...The illusion of seperate self is actually a delusion , it starts with a thought identifying something as out-there perhaps a hat on a head or some such thing. it is the mind labeling sense ...

1/ Q...Is there a 'me',at all, anywhere,in any way,shape or form?
A....No there is no me,as the experience rolls on,'I' imagine looking as an observer (but even that is just a passing thought )...something rolls unfolds etc,interconnectedness is all there is.As 'I' said in the earlier dialouge ...
