Sandra,

I wrote extensively on the questions you posed last time. As I check today, Sunday, February 9, 4:55 p.m., it doesn't appear that they were posted. Please check on your side and let me know if you have them. If not I'll do them again. It will take a few days for me to get to it. I have long ...

Thank you for guiding me. Here is what I have to say to the questions below:

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

Absolutely not. There is no separate self. There never was, and never will be. All the pain and suffering “I ...

Hi Sandra,

Thanks for your post. Here is where I am today:

YOU
What remains?

ME
There is a quietude about me today. It's not as if I have fallen into a trance. It's like I am aware of what's going on. Things do come up in smaller quantities than before, and when they do I know what they are, and ...

Sandra,

Thank you for your post.

YOU
Are you saying that you are 100% sure that the separate self it's an illusion?

ME
There is no doubt about it; there is no self.

For every situation that arises, there is one question that resolves the confusion. "Look: Where is the I/me/self that's having ...

Sandra,

Thank you for this insightful article. Here is what I see:

QUESTION 1
Compare the two ways to label experience- is one truer than the other?

ME
The I is not necessary; it claims and experience and makes it personal. Experiences just happen, and they do not require an I/me/mine to be real ...

Sandra,

Thank you for your encouragement to look.

YOU
Please answer the two questions in bold and the ones below, drop the others, they're just observations.

ME
Everything I said above came from my head. I'm like a student, and I like the stuff I've learned. The knowledge, as you imply, only ...

Hi Sandra,

YOU
So, where is Hancock? Find it and describe it to me, please.

ME
I see the point of the question. I also see the answer: Hancock does not exist. I see this in my intellect. I have read some, and have learned some of the lingo. I realize that this is not enough. It's obvious that I am ...

Hi Sandra,

I understand. What I hope to achieve from this dialogue is to know what you are saying in my way of being, and not just know from my intellect. My intellect likes those words; there is a difference between thinking about eating an apple than actually eating one. There is a difference in ...

Sandra,

Thank you.

YOU
"When you say that you want to see beyond the story of Hancock are you expecting that seeing that you don't exist - that the separated self it's an illusion - will make the story stop, get better, change the way you would like the story to change?"

ME
For me, the story does ...

Hi Sandra,

It's 11:30 Central Time USA. I'm not able to see your posts. Let's see if I can see this posts; let me know by email if you can see it.

Hancock

Sandra, It's 7:12 a.m. Central Time USA. Was your last post, "How do you know, unless you look?" I'm ready to look. I'm not sure if you will see this so I'll send a secure email if I can.

Hancock

Sandra,

I'm here at 1/31 7:08 Central Time USA. Was your last post, "How do you know, unless you look?" I'm ready to look.

Hancock

Sandra,

I want to make sure: have you replied? Will you be my guide?

I'm just getting back to this. I'm willing, but be aware this might be challenging. This "me" still thinks the past is real, and, like a disease, keeps going back to it. This search could be taxing; that's why I'm asking if you are up to this. I'll check back and see if you replied.

I'm obviously doing this incorrectly. How do I do it right?
