Re: A hard case?

Hi Nelson You are an amazing guide, Rali. Thank you for your support. It’s really my pleasure :) But, I can also see that, deep inside, I still believe that, somehow, what is happening (conscious experience) must be sustained by something, and that something is the body, so I must protect it. Is it ...

I would already like to say that Im sorry to keep coming back to this point about awareness, but I feel like I would be pretending that I don’t think this is truth if I don’t mention it, so I hope you can bear with...

Re: I'd like to awaken please

Hi Maks I’m sorry to hear that the therapist was not very helpful! Therapy and inquiry are quite different when addressing suffering. Therapy is primarily focused on exploring the personal narratives that people construct around their experiences. It aims to uncover the often unconscious beliefs tha...

Re: A hard case?

Hi Nelson Very good looking! There is a growing recognition that everything in DE consists of perceptions - tactile perception, or feeling; visual perception, or seeing; etc. There are no objects. There is not even space. But, of course, the mind keeps questioning it. Very good! So we keep looking! ...

Re: Direct experiencing

Hey I really appreciate your openness and willingness to look. I know it could be difficult to challenge strongly held believes. You are doing great! I am really looking from my own experience and what I can see is that it cannot be described with the senses because the senses can only describe/see ...

Re: Direct experiencing

Hey The "apple" is not known. Only the sensation in your hand or mouth, the taste, smell and sight (color) are known and you can be absolutely certain about. The label apple is a concept(thought) given to a set of sensations, tastes, smells and sights based on past experiences. There's not an actual...

Re: Got stuck in tiger's mouth

Hi Shafigh Yes, feeling like it's not enough because of not being good enough—because of guilt and shame stories.
