Lol 'not "you"'.
Re: Round Two
*shrug* it's around if I'm not looking into direct experience enough.Look at "So why is the belief in self still around?" - is this true?
No.Even if it were, is it personal?
Re: Round Two
I'm starting to see that it's not, but there's resistance to really getting it, letting go of 'ownership' of all experiences, intentions, etc and seeing that they're all like wind blowing.
But what is there to own them, what's there to realise any of this, or release anything? When I look, there's ...
