It’s not about not caring. It’s just that I am the one who doesn’t care or not care. I’m see through. Poor ego that needed love. Love was going through it the whole time but itvthoughtvit was a solid thing not a membrane

Game hint: Nothing is solid and in a sense, nothing is the only thing that is solid.

Love ya, Jed.

The focus on the body mind ego (whatever you want to call it) is loosening day by day. And a clarity of seeing that I am the ineffable immaterial watcher is becoming more of a “being”. It seems like a process but maybe it is no more a process than the clouds parting after a storm to reveal the sunshine is a process. God! I hope I dont get too woo woo kaftan wearing hippy with more posts like this. But yep the camels back is broken. It keeps trying to get up but it can’t get far before gives up again.

so if every single thing is an apparent illusion, mere phenomena then why is the ego saidto be the one thing that is totally not real? Why isn’t the ego just another piece of dream phenomena? It seems like it is. No more important than a bug on the wall or a war granted. But still another piece of phenomena. When Truth is realised does the ego and desire stay but it’s seen to be just another thing that’s simply happening in the dream?

Good question, post T/R a thin sliver or ego and desire remain. Just enough to keep you in the human game... unless of course, you leave the dream completely. Up to you.... maybe.

Love ya, Jed

So it’s like that now anyway but the difference is the attachment to it being important for the ego

Just watch that attachment... awareness will weaken it.

Hey jed, it’s been a while. The mind has been thinking it’s in control and it needs more sex and drugs and money. But late at night now and then for a a little glimpse it all drops out. I have no idea how to explain the mechanism that loosens the delusion. But again and again the ego is seen as just another automatic impersonal phenomena happening within the everythingness. No words... no words... it’s almost like I hear this non duality stuff and it makes my ego give up now and then. Then I forget and go back into ego mode. But even that fluctuation is what’s happening It’s just the focus of the lens changes

It’s so funny how we assume there is somebody in here doing things. What happens just happens. Even the thinking i am the doer is just what’s happening. It’s all just what is. Even the separation is only an appearance of wholeness. So it’s always complete even if it feels incomplete. And nothing can be done about the waxing and waning of the TR. nice when it happens though. Nice for no one ironically 😂 it’s done even when it’s not.
