LU is focused guiding for seeing there is no real, inherent 'self' - what do you understand by this?
The true inherent nature of all beings - the primordial state - is free from all limitations and conditioning. From this absolute point there is no self, it is just illusion.
What are you looking for at LU?
I am looking for sangha - community of people sharing the same Way.
Also for inspiration, texts, videos or maybe also retreats to practice together. Also I would like to learn the Direct Pointing method.
What do you expect from a guided conversation?
I would like to learn the Direct Pointing method, I wonder if it is the same as self inquiry in Advaita or some practices in Dzogchen. Also I am looking for Inspiration, sharing. I would also appreciate to have a guide, it sounds Wonderfull!
What is your experience in terms of spiritual practices, seeking and inquiry?
I am student of Dzogchen and Advaita.
I have experiences of the Primordial state (non-dual state), I am aware it is our true existence and I would like to relax into it more and "live" it continually.
On a scale from 1 to 10, how willing are you to question any currently held beliefs about 'self? 11

Hello, my name is Elad and I would be happy to do this exploration with you, if we see that it makes sense. Please read and respond to the following points.
1. During this process we will attend only to your own direct experience. We will not be discussing theories or beliefs or other methods, including from non-duality and etc. I will ask you questions and give exercises and you will look and answer me from your direct experience.
2. The two most important ingredients in this process are your wish to see what is true and your willingness to look deeply at questions, give wholehearted engagement to experiments/exercises presented to you, and report your experience here with 100% honesty. It is key to let direct experience be the matter at hand and not hang on to even the most precious conceptual beliefs and past experiences.
3. Please read the following documents from LU *carefully* and let me know or ask questions, if you have any reservations or doubts regarding them:

And:

4. For the process to be focused and fruitful, I like to make an agreement that both guide and client (i.e you and me if we do this together) respond on this thread every day, and in the case of special circumstances where we cannot, still touch space here on the thread to say so, the day before or on the day. In the same spirit, I work with people who have the motivation and availability to make this process a primary priority in their life for the duration of the cooperation. If any of this does not fit your life rhythm, style or preferences, please let me know and another guide will work with you.
What may I call you?
Warmly,
Elad
With love,
Elad
