Hi Colleen,

Long time no speak.We survived another blizzard and life goes on. Our power was out for 3 days so we have been in survival mode.Time to focus again. All thoughts have been directed towards the various challenges that mother nature has brought to our personal and business lifes.

who handled the blizzard, was it "u" or did it just get handled all on it's own?

While there is a complete understanding that the blizzard was handled on it's own, it sure felt like David was back in full force making the calls. My thoughts were not on being liberated for the first time in quite a while so the "focus" to the process has not been there for the last 4 days.

Did the thoughts about how to handle it happen on there own or did "you" do them?

All thoughts happen on there own without exception although it doesn't always feel that way.

yes..doubt...who is there to doubt?...where is "he", this one that doubts? doesn't doubt just arise and is their really a "believer" there to take it on'? look

Doubt is just another thought. It surfaces from points unknown just like all other thoughts.


I need to got back to more "looking" in a more relaxed way like you say. Less thinking and more looking is necessary.


Yesterday a beautiful moment was experienced. I was in the kitchen washing dishes and suddenly focused on a fly strip that had dead flies on it(where these flies came from in the middle of winter is a mystery). Somehow I felt connected to these flies and felt awed by the life they lived. I felt at one with everything for an hour or so. I now see the purpose for the flies. Now there are no more flies in the house...go figure...strange but true.


Talk to you soon,
With Love... David

hi David,

glad to hear power is back and all thinking happens on it's own yes even though it feels like "u" r doing it...
notice, look in direct experience where is the u that is doing it outside of thought?...Even though this is seen
that there is no doer, it is still an experience of doing life...life goes on just the truth is seen it is not "'u" doing it.

I need to got back to more "looking" in a more relaxed way like you say. Less thinking and more looking is necessary.

When u say you need to get back to more looking...having read what u wrote in earlier responses u clearly saw there is no I there to find...is there something more to look for, r to keep proving that to "yourself"?...what if it is that simple and life goes on as it always has?

let me know what u find,
loving what is here, the perfection of it all and lifes unfolding on it's own as one... yes flies and all,
Coll

Hi Colleen,

notice, look in direct experience where is the u that is doing it outside of thought?..

There is no "I" doing it outside of thought. Only the thought of "I" doing it. This is clearly understood.

When u say you need to get back to more looking...having read what u wrote in earlier responses u clearly saw there is no I there to find...is there something more to look for, r to keep proving that to "yourself"?...what if it is that simple and life goes on as it always has?

It seems that my thoughts have been working overtime in perpetuating the illusion of self. Many personal and professional challenges lately perfectly arising doing thier job. I have been able to see through them and am ready to let the idea of ending the "search" sink in. I do realize there is nobody for the idea to sink into but I think you know what I mean. I also realize there truely is no search to end.

Thanks Coll,
Talk to you tommorow....David

Hi David,

was swept away in Valentines with family last nite, sorry for the delay in response.....

It seems that my thoughts have been working overtime in perpetuating the illusion of self.

yes the thought "I", illusion of a separate self goes on even when seen thru and yet notice there is no one doing that even..perpetuating the illusion of self, I ?

I have been able to see through them and am ready to let the idea of ending the "search" sink in. I do realize there is nobody for the idea to sink into but I think you know what I mean. I also realize there truely is no search to end.

Is there anybody that can "let go" of the idea of ending the "search"?
And yes, who is the search for, who is there to know anything?

let me know what is there to look for,
loving,
Coll

Hi Collen,

Glad you got lost with family...that's a good thing.Always appreciative of all pointers anytime they are given.

yes the thought "I", illusion of a separate self goes on even when seen thru and yet notice there is no one doing that even..perpetuating the illusion of self, I ?

Yes. just thoughts perpetuating the "I" with more thoughts.Nothing more.

Is there anybody that can "let go" of the idea of ending the "search"?
And yes, who is the search for, who is there to know anything?

Just the thought of letting go of the search is what's present. The search happens because there is the thought of a need to search for something. In reality life just is as it has always been, perfectly flowing on it's own accord. There is no "knower" . Just Life/God.

Happy late Valentine's....David

Hi David,
yes lost with family is a beautiful offering in life...

In reality life just is as it has always been, perfectly flowing on it's own accord. There is no "knower" . Just Life/God.

yes life moves perfectly on it's own, amazing creation it is isn't it?

Is there anything left to look for, see thru or are you ready for the final questions?


love and valentines for the love of truth,
Coll

Hi Colleen,

Hi Colleen,

Sorry for the delay.Yesterday the flu reared it's ugly head and kicked "my" ass. Feeling a little better today. It seems over the last two weeks the perfect storm of distractions have entered the story to do thier job. Confusion and frustration are the prevalent thoughts at the moment. The "no-self" concept is clearly understood.... Every time it's examined no "I" can be found....is it" clearly" seen is the question and the answer is no...some belief must still be present....what it is is the question....a true change in perspective has not yet occured on a consistant basis...a push of some sort is needed...

Thanks again
David

[open space]

Hi David,

yes that flu seems to be visiting many...love u made it back here in all that is arising there...
reflect here in direct experience that is void of interpretations and expectations....

The "no-self" concept is clearly understood.... Every time it's examined no "I" can be found..

yes, nothing can be found, could it be that simple, the most simple and honest truth of all, takes no effort or understanding, so obvious, seems clear...
1. what else is there to experience?,
2. is there someone really there that needs to now experience that?

a true change in perspective has not yet occured on a consistant basis...

a true change in perspective has not yet occurred on a consistant basis...
3. is there a hidden expectation there, as there will always be thoughts visiting wanting more?
4. who is saying this thought?
5. who is needing a true change in perspective to occur on a consistant basis?

a push of some sort is needed...

6.Who is saying that?
7. Who needs a push, where is there to go but just see the truth of this?

invite to sit here, experience this absence that is clear when "examined" as u shared,
what is it like to just notice
the simplicity of that in all that happens, while having the flu and or while thinking u r real...there is no one ever there doing any of this, could it be that simple?...
sending love in your resting here,
Coll

[dws777]

Hi Coll,

I'm going to take your advice and sit in the absense of self for a day or two if that's ok with you. Your words really hit home this morning and thoughts of liberation abounded in a subtle way....you have been wonderful!

Talk to you soon....David

[open space]

Hi David,

am here on your return...
as you sit here and notice this absence that
has always been there...
walking in the quiet of nature is a beautiful place to notice this
as well if you can get a chance to be there...
or just experiencing the love of child
or someone u love rise within
and notice no one is doing that...

loving gratitude for this time,
Coll

Hi Colleen,

Just checking in....Thanks again for all your help...it's a beautiful thing when one is dedicated to helping others...really want to make sure before answering final questions...on expectations-I guess there may be an expectation of a shift. Reading GG and other forums it seems there is a change in perspective in most. This is why the thought of uncertainty is present.Please smack me around a little bit!

Peace be with you...David

[open space]

Hi there David,

lets take a look...it is my favorite place to look so love helping here....

please, will you answer below as your answers are what help this to wake up to what is there all the time, your absence. I numbered them so that they are clear and added the ones from above that u may have answered on your own, please answer here....And this does not have to be with the "right" answer, this is in direct experience void of thoughts, interpretations...answer just freely and try not to spend a lot of time figuring the answer out on each question, just answer in the aliveness of what comes reading it....enjoy

1.ok lets "smack" some veils that are there...if any as there are none...cuz there is no you, never was...
when you hear that...what happens? experience that...share...?

2.there is no one and therefore there is no doer of thoughts or of "u", ... it is all happening on it's own...living absence...are you breathing you?, are you thinking you? are you choosing the thoughts you believe?; are you moving your eyes reading this? did you choose to come onto LU, who did that?

10. uncertainty can arise here and is there anyone that thought is happening to?

lots of questions here and answering them is key to open the "veils" here...look forward to meeting u here and your answers tomorrow!

Coll
