Request Hare as a guide!

Hi Hare;

How are you doing,

Here I am, answering the last of the six questions:

Anything to add?

Is the adding referring to 'an insight into the true nature of self?' or something else from the 5 other Q presented? All this enquiry for me had one aim that could be summarised as follows:

'Look deeply into the nature of Self and see for what it is?

What has been experienced, DE kind of experienced, is the flow of life as it were. There is a DE of things coming into being and passing away... also there is that seeing (not know how to call it differently) of a process, a kind of the 'arising of the self' trying to control what is happening... guess that is what you call the Selfing... that too, arises and falls aways more easily than before. When it falls aways it is because there is a knowing of what it is... also a process which is still a mystery ...

There are still some questions around responsibility ... as a process, more than an issue about a 'responsible' (subject) and 'responsibility' as an action of the subject... how does responsibility arises? How is a moral choice made?

Also, there is more awareness that, before this process started, the existence of a Self was taken for granted in a rather unconscious way ... because now... there are questions (I know there are passing thoughts) about how all the process we call life and relating arises ... how moral and/or ethical choices are made... if there is no-one to make them (and believe me, is true!)

Anything else to add/ask Hare?

This has been an incredible journey... like an acid trip (even though I have never had one of those, hehe) ... a trip to hitherto unexplored territories ... and for that I'm deeply grateful...

There is also al awareness of not wanting this enquiry to end... ;-)

Love .... Akita

Hi Akita,

What has been experienced, DE kind of experienced, is the flow of life as it were. There is a DE of things coming into being and passing away... also there is that seeing (not know how to call it differently) of a process, a kind of the 'arising of the self' trying to control what is happening... guess that is what you call the Selfing... that too, arises and falls always more easily than before. When it falls always it is because there is a knowing of what it is... also a process which is still a mystery ...

Good to see this habit / process for what it is; not to be worried by it - especially as the very awareness of 'selfing' is what loosens its grip. Yes, its a mystery! Conceptual thought cannot explain it all...though it will keep trying!

There are still some questions around responsibility ... as a process, more than an issue about a 'responsible' (subject) and 'responsibility' as an action of the subject... how does responsibility arises? How is a moral choice made?

Is this questioning happening in DE or in thought?

How can "moral choice" be different from any other "choice"?

Can "moral choice" be found in DE, right now?

Thought will no doubt keep finding questions to 'worry at'. No problem. See thoughts simply as thoughts, over and again! Having thoughts is no problem, but being identified with them gives rise to the confusion of endless papancha.

A bit of classic Buddhist doctrine to reassure 'mind': an awakened being automatically acts in accordance with ethical precepts (or love, to use different language) because they are in touch with direct awareness and experience. They are in tune with 'how things really are', part of which is understanding the illusory nature of the 'separate self', not to mention the non-separation of self and other (but that is a bridge too far here, we are sticking with our remit of exploring self-view!)

There is also al awareness of not wanting this enquiry to end... ;-)

Hey we are fortunate to be in the same order. These explorations aren't going to stop any time soon - there are whole communities of folks (online and face to face) exploring this territory every day. No need to hang on to anything!

I'd like to ask the other guides if they have any questions for you at this point. But first please just come back with responses to the three questions above.

Stay in DE, keep it simple!

Love, Hare

Hi again, Akita,

The other LU guides have no more questions for you (I would still be interested to know your response to the above but we can go on exploring these things...)

Thanks you for throwing yourself into this so fully, it's been engaging and enjoyable from this end of things! A pleasure and a privilege.

You are welcome to join LU new arrivals and Unleashed pages. I have sent you a message on facebook (Hare's identity revealed!). If you want to do this, let me know via facebook and please watch out for a message from LU forum messages.

Love and light

Hare ;-)
