Was also wanted the add one the pieces of advice you gave me in all this that really helped was 'Stop thinking and just look!"
Simple but it was powerful when you realize the 'seeing is the doing'. Seeing it 'as it is' created the shift in perspective.

This came up to clarify from one of the other guides from your last responses:
The references to "consciousness is all" and "consciousness is happening" seem to add terminology that we don't often use here. Is "consciousness" intended as an entity?

Also one of the other guides would enjoy hearing about any specific examples relevant to question 5 (choice) that have been manifesting over the last few days.

Thanks for taking the time with this.
Is "consciousness" intended as an entity?
To clarity I don’t mean consciousness as an entity which is aware of the universe more meaning existence is consciousness.
So say we take an apple, the apple is consciousness but I don't mean there is a separate apple consciousness rather the experience of the apple is consciousness. So you cannot have experience without consciousness.
Also one of the other guides would enjoy hearing about any specific examples relevant to question 5 (choice) that have been manifesting over the last few days.
To give an example here I think the supermarket might be a good one as I struggled with the subject of choice when I first looked at this. I struggled because there was some identification with the chooser but this was only thought. So a thought might be “yeah but you thought about beans and then you bought them, how is that not choosing.” But that is all hearsay it’s not a direct experience of choosing as a function. I could mentally analyze this to death and talk about it being procedural memory acting etc.. but choosing can never be found because there is no one there to make the choice. So choice needs two things in order to happen. A separation from the choice and a chooser. Two things I cannot find any direct experience of. So choosing is just part of the illusionary story of ‘I’.
