Hi Paulo,

I got knocked down by a fever, feeling better now. I will practice these exercises and will tell you how it went.

Thanks a lot.

Alonso.

Hi Paul,

After talking about this it has become clear to me that the “I” is just an invention. Alonso, is a creation, it has never existed outside of a label or a concept.

I have understood that thoughts come and go as they please and have no control over them, we even saw how the brain actually ...

Hi Paulo,

Nice to meet you.

I´m back home.

Hope to catch up.

Thank you.

Alonso.

Is there thinking separate from direct experience?

No, but we give meaning to those toughts, that have nothing to do with DE. Now, when I go into the maze, those thoughts are not real, but yeah they are not separate from DE, even thou in the past they felt as separate from everything else, we ...

Hi D,

Can you tell me where 'you' are at now?

From DE, writing is happening now, now in the mind a million toughts are happening, a monologue happens, and so it goes, now the content of those toughts is not real.

How has this process affected 'you'?

I stop when the avalanche of toughts come ...

Hi D,

How are you?

Hope you had a good weekend.

Here are some answers.

Thank you.

Alonso.


Within this meaning of this sentence what is this "I'?

A thought, a creation.

What is this 'liberated feeling'?

Just a concept, the naming of a feeling, artificially created.

Describe this ...

Hi D,

I'm sorry that I haven't been posting.

I am consumed with work and I could write back an intellectual answer but if I don't go within and try to experience then it won't make sense.

I think I will answer as you say one question at a time.

I won't abandon this, take that for granted, again ...

Hi D,

Just to let you know I've just read your post and I will get back at you.

Thank you.

Alonso.

Morning, from here.

Just read your your post.

Need to chew on it.

You need to stop thinking the answers and answer from DE, all the time.

How, can I stop thinking, and surrender to DE?

I don´t know what to think, its clear to me, that the I is a story, a creation, but I don´t feel a ...

Hi D,

What is the non existent 'I"?


Actually is not provided by the I, we know that I doesn´t exist. It´s the brain that labels de body.

The “I” does not observe, and there are no “others” cause the separation is done by the “I” that isn’t there.

This sounded like a riddle.

Is there 'the ...

Good Morning D,


Is there a pure state that exists either in or outside of experience?

I don´t know what are we referring when we speak about ´puré state´

Can the 'I' chew?

No, the ‘I’ think it does, but its automatic.

Is there anything that's can think it does? Be very precise here

No ...

Hi D,

Sorry for the delay.

Haven’t rode into the no self sunset yet!

Hope all is good with you.

Here are my answers:

What is this 'you' that can have someone inside? There is no ‘you’ just a concept that there is one.

What is this 'me' that can see or realize? It’s an idea, to which we ...

D,

I used to get an email telling me when I had a message from you, and for some reason I didnt get them, and actually today, my brother told me "Hey why havent you answered D" and I was like, what? Not sure what happend. I even tought you were busy, after I wrote my last message.

I will read ...

Hi D,

I´m chewing right now, and I have no control of the movements of my jaw it´s just happening with my thoughts telling how it should move.

When, I drive and I glance at the mirror in front or the sides, it´s automatic.

I have no control on any process my body performs. Oxigen, digestion ...

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

No, there has never been.

2) Explain in detail what the illusion of separate self is, when it starts and how it works from your own experience. Describe it fully as you see it now ...
