Hi Gautpie, my name is Pablo Miller, and your post appeals to me. I'm 77 years old, and nonduality has interested me for over 50 years. Logic and evidence lead to the undeniable conclusion that (beyond the possibility of quantum randomness) any kind of uncaused cause (separate self) is simply ...

Nice to see such a well-considered response, thank you.
I’m curious as to how I can be of help.

Hi Erica,

You noted that:
I still can be taken away by doubt& frustration. ..Only the truth of what is beyond getting caught up in believing the voice of doubt...Only the truth of what is beyond getting caught up in believing the voice of doubt....I can’t escape from lol maybe it’s still this ...

Based on what you wrote, I offer my time to be your guide for as long as that is helpful for you.

Sounds like there's been a lot of effort towards becoming free from the burden of blame/shame/worry/wanting things to be different from the way they are.

Is that correct?
If so, please watch that ...

That's great.
I'll PM you separately for your email address.

I offered because it would be a pleasure, not a bother :-)

Is there a possibility for peaceful acceptance and simply observation of that as it is happening?

Sandra,

What is happening in your experience of now as you read this?

Soley,
How are you now?
What is happening in your now experience right now?

Fabio,
How are you now?

Ha, Soley, I love it.

And always nice to hear from you.

I'm 4 hours earlier than you, and often flexible with a couple days notice.
Are there some predictable times when you will/won't be available for a skype?

p\/p

Thanks for that.

Now it feels like there is nothing supporting the possibility of "real" events being different from "illusory" events... they seem like the same thing. Agreed. Fortunately (especially without all the noise and confusion of Self and defense of some Identity ) our brains do seem to ...

note the different meaning of "you" in that last sentence.
means a location, an organism, an ape with highly sophisticated language and cognitive resources, a homo sapiens, a woman.

but not an uncaused cause or a free agent :-)

My interpretation of the quote is that any event in nature, including thoughts and beliefs and walruses and planets and black holes, only exists to the observer as an appearance. What it “is” can only be how it appears, which varies from one observing mind/apparatus to another.

I have noticed ...
