hi, JR, sorry if these questions seem redundant. i am looking for a clarity i do not yet see in your replies (could be my vision).

with reference only to your present, immediate experience,

is there a see-er of seeing or just the experience of seeing?

is there a place to which all other experience appears to refer or happen (even if seen to be false)?

if so, what do you see when you look there? what is it?

A panel of questioners!

What is behind the nothing? Please simply look at the view there (so to speak) and tell us how it looks. It really doesn't matter if words fail, please try.
How does a tree look without knowing the definition of tree?
The song of a bird turns wheels of thought wishing to label and explain.
gears of the mind turning slower and slower.
What is behind the nothing? Beautiful abyssal plains.
Freedom, love, and peace.
A Living room.
Oh, nothing.

No apologies necessary! These questions are wonderful.
with reference only to your present, immediate experience, is there a see-er of seeing or just the experience of seeing? Just the experience of seeing. A flow of myriad of visual stimuli. A glimpse of the universe.
is there a place to which all other experience appears to refer or happen (even if seen to be false)?
Here, now. the only time and space that are relevant. No place. Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide.

JR, can you explain a bit more what you meant by "Practicing I-lessness"?

In this instance, practice and living could be substituted. Upon realizing the silliness of self, a whole world of existence has opened up. The practice comes after you've found the root of no self. A seed is but one tiny part of the forest ecosystem.
