"firmly established" is only a thought. Not anything real.

Watch these, please:

and

This is just a beginning.

When you learned that Santa Claus was just a man in a red suit did you have to keep looking? Even if he puts the red suit back on?

Hi Stacy,

No.

Am I beginning to see more clearly? I feel two perspectives kind of coexisting in my experience right now. The old and the new.
Or is that also just a thought? I am a bit confused. What is going on here, really?

Peace, James

You tell me.

Remember we are looking for a shift in perception. It may be gradual and slow or it may be fast and hard and hit you like a ton of bricks.

Have you read Gateless Gatecrashers for examples?

You tell me.
I have been quite unfocused and distracted all day. I feel excited about something loosening and at the same time I feel it does not matter what I think really. Thoughts seem to be a dead end street so why bother?
I have no plan and I have no idea how to go on.

Thanks for taking the time with me.

Peace, James

...another question, Stacy:
Am I doing ok? With the inquiry?

Yes, James. You're doing fine.

It took me 3 months. It takes some people much longer.

You'll let go & look at some point. You can't control it or make it happen.

Hi Stacy,

I am reading Liberation unleashed at the moment. I will read Gateless gate crashers next.
I will keep looking.

Thank you.

That should help.

ButtChair is your go to pointer. You can repeat any & all pointers and re-read your thread.

You can also try these. Be sure to listen to the introduction first.

Good evening,

I just listened to the introduction. Sounds more than interesting. Who is this?
Will keep listening and report back.
Any questions or comments about what you're reading?
Not anything in particular at the moment.

I have been caught up in quite intense work for two days. Early this morning when going to work there was a sudden but subtle sense of ease and clarity. It faded when I got to work and that whole thing took over. I noticed it though.
I feel quite present and relaxed despite there being lots of things going on in my life.

Take care,

James

That could be it! That could be seeing clearly there's no "self.

It will come & go. Pay attention & relax into it.

The man who did those recordings went into a different business & asked me to keep his name private.


You're doing great.

Hi Stacy,

There really is a subtle but real difference in how I perceive lately. I have no idea if "this is it" but something is different.
I do not want to get lost in thoughts about it.

I just did the first meditation from the recording. It feels right.

Peace,

James

Very good.

Look at the "So What?" chapter of "Liberation Unleashed." Does that sound like where you are?

Are you still seeking?

Can you say 100% there's no separate "self?"

Hi Stacy,
Are you still seeking
?
Yes I am. I feel like I am standing with one foot in the same old world and the other foot in something entirely different. In a way I am beginning to see that the sights, smells, sensations, tastes and sounds I perceive in this moment is all there is. I really can't find the "I". Doesn't seem to matter how long and hard I try to locate it. I can not find it because it's not there. On the other hand, it feels like there is a "me" here somewhere. Very paradoxical.
Can you say 100% there's no separate "self?"
No I can not say that. Not yet. The sense of there being a "me" somewhere, running the show is quite powerful. Or maybe it's just my belief in it that's powerful. Is it just a thought? It's like my intellect is seeing things but my gut is still resisting.

Thank you so much for your patience with me.

Peace,

James

Yes. It is a Sensation plus a lie, a thought, a made-up story,, a hallucination.

There is nothing powerful about it. When you see that there is no self, it is actually quite flimsy.
the sights, smells, sensations, tastes and sounds I perceive in this moment is all there is. I really can't find the "I".
Focus on that. That is the truth.
