For conversational purposes it’s easier to use the term body/mind. I don’t know where thought occurs, seems to be inside the skull, everything else is outside.
"What is it that finds an inside and an outside in any experience?"

No one! There isn't inside or outside being experienced. Inside and ...

Hi Sarah,

Sarah, if you don't like any of these answers I can rewrite, add or subtract, whatever. Let me know.

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

There is no separate entity “self”, “me” or “I”, at all, anywhere, in any ...

Hi Sarah,

The final questions are almost done, will post them either tonight or will have them for Thursday.
Sarah I also do want to thank you for doing this for me. I know I get cranky or really have off days, but you have been an excellent guide. I did enjoy this, and I will miss you when it's ...

]Hi Sarah,

Was in the supermarket looking for rolls. I approached the bin, grabbed a plastic bag, thought goes "now grab a bag".
Thought calmed down, the rolls were scanned, and one was grabbed. No one doing the choosing, just scanning and grabbing. Same with the banana stand. Scanned the array of ...

Hi Sarah.

I was back at the zucchini stand today. I approached the bin and thought was very quiet. I started scanning the zucchini ( just seeing, no one doing the scanning), one looked acceptable, the hand/arm took the zucchini and placed it into a plastic bag. Thought was still quiet when I ...

Hi Sarah,

Sarah, I've got my head up my ass, this choice thing has me buggy. I bought a roll again this afternoon,
and it seemed that grading or criteria for selection can be accomplished just by seeing? Or is thought coming so fast I'm not seeing it? I'm totally lost here. The mirror just reflects ...

Hi Sarah,

I've finished the questions, need a little clean up and will post tomorrow.
I still might have a problem with choice. No one to make a choice, but there is still choosing.
I was in a pub with a friend, and scanning the beer selection I would definitely say I choose the beer I wanted.
No ...

Hi Sarah,

Just #5 left to answer, will do a rewrite, then should be ready in a day or 2.

Thanks Sarah -- Larryxxx

Hi Sarah,

Do you feel the illusion of self has been revealed?

Yes, bring on the final questions if you wish.

Thanks Sarah -- Larryxxx

Hi Sarah,

I’ve been doing the hand exercise with eyes closed. There is no sense of direction, just movement.
Perception = direction? I can’t find a source. The arm is not separate from what is.

Is there even movement? Is there just sensation? It’s interesting once starting to look at this ...

Hi Sarah,

Well yea, we all decide what we would like for dinner. There might be no one doing the deciding but dinner still has to be planned.

Check this please! Is this really the case? Or is this thoughts again? Is there a ‘you’ doing any of this? Or does it simply happen?

Yes it's thought. I ...

Hi Sarah,

OK – what is direction? Experiment with that? Shut your eyes to start off with. Move your hand or arm. Try up and down etc. Really investigate that! What is direction? Does it exist in our direct experience or in something else…..?
Track down this source! Can you find a source? Why does ...

Hi Sarah,

Yes, the commentary has nothing to do with anything but commenting on what is actually going on right now. I was just watching a movie and wondering about the hand/arm being just "what is". I looked down at my arm, and it didn't belong to anybody. It is just a hand/arm. This might not be ...

Hi Sarah,

It was just commentary, the choice was already made. There was no one doing the choosing. 6 months ago this would seem weird, now it seems perfectly normal.

Yes! Now take note of any other choice happening. Do 'you' chose? Or is there just choice happening. Is it simply another ...

Hi Sarah,

I need to explain the above post. The question came across as seeing or being aware of. The better question is more like: If this arm is just "what is" then who is in charge of or where does direction come from. The arm still reaches out, but where is the source of the direction. I ...
