LU is focused guiding for seeing there is no real, inherent 'self' - what do you understand by this?
All my thoughts and feelings are not real, they are just 'habits', programming, things I learned to take seriously and define myself with. Instead of letting them grab me, I know I 'just' need to witnes them passing by.
Sometimes I feel how life just flows through me. Then 'I' disappear and all that rests is life itself. I want more of that.
What are you looking for at LU?
I am very curious to investigate this further. Sometimes I can really feel this being true, but other times (and specially when strong emotions are involved, or 'big things' happen in my life) I feel totally captured by my thoughts and feelings. It seems like they grab me, but i know that "i" am the one that holds on to them.
I do not want to spend too much time online, but i do want support and contact with likeminded people. To experience more and more that i am able to bear whatever arises.
What do you expect from a guided conversation?
Guidance to let go of this identification with my thoughts and feeling. Encouragement to 'die', to let go. Support in the growing knowing that I am safe, that life flows through me whatever my thoughts and feelings are, and that I only have to just experience whatever occurs inside or outside of me.
What is your experience in terms of spiritual practices, seeking and inquiry?
i did some retreats (online) with Rupert Spira, had some sessions with different guides (like a student from Almaas and a Dutch coach), my partner is always present in this realisation. So it is quite present in our daily life, but I need other anchors in this knowing, too.
I have always be a 'seeker' and did a lot of therapy and things like that. But it did not really help, issues (especially fear, anxiety, panic) kept on returning and I was happy to meet my partner and also come in contact with Rupert Spira, Eckhart Tolle, Mooji and others to find this special point of view that feels so true to me.
On a scale from 1 to 10, how willing are you to question any currently held beliefs about 'self? 10
