Freedom of mind

[JudithB]

LU is focused guiding for seeing there is no real, inherent 'self' - what do you understand by this?
I understand this to mean there is no self, the ego is the construct developed to respond to life. There is just consciousness having an experience

What are you looking for at LU?
I am looking for a breakthrough to identification with thought and the suffering that I experience as a result of the stories of my mind.
I struggle with anxiety and I am very head centred and a friend directly me to direct pointing as a possible tool

What do you expect from a guided conversation?
To be guided to the absence of the self, to get to a 'breakthrough' in experiencing everything is I. To be directed away from dominating emotions or thoughts to the underlying truth of a more neutral observer

What is your experience in terms of spiritual practices, seeking and inquiry?
Guided meditation, mostly new age, mindfulness, contemplation (gene keys)
