I understand that. As to the idea of choice. I dont know. With me there has always been a push or a drive and it didnt appear to be a choice, as I said i dont know.

It's not that you don't know... it's that you CAN'T know anything, ever. You can only think you know and doing so lulls people back to sleep. Just allow not-knowing to be. It's a marvelous place to be.

Love ya, Jed

Much of this i am finding difficult to describe, mind and description seem to become real again in the apparent process. Jeez, even language!


A dream that happened a few days back (ridiculous concept ) just repeated the word ' everything' 'everything', (but in French). It woke me up.

Language is the foundation of the false separation. Demonically effective.

Love ya, Jed.

Would we be abiding in no self if there was no language invented?

That's hard to say, I'd need words to know... perhaps.

Love ya, Jed.

Seems to have no-thing infers the absence of some-thing or the opposite of nothing (-1) everything (1). They cancel in this fashion (-1)Nothing + (1)Everything = 0.

0 = Anything

Stories, stories, what is your experience, sans stories?

Actually (even in my experience) nothing is the only thing that can't exist. I can create the concept of nothing...That ain't it.

Sans the stories is simply a still mind not a new belief system such as "no I" or "everything is nothing" but like you said...Nice story ;)

YES J:

Get it! All stories, you, me, absolutely everything is a story. What are stories for, either learning or entertaining... and that's just a story.... to every thought in your head, just say, "Thank you, but that's just a story. Tattoo it on you arm, have t-shirts made up, to everything anyone say, just say, ''Thank you, but that's just a story''. You will find out how many or you friends will be able to keep up with you on this journey to nowhere. Friends  ??? ??? ???, just a story, lovers  :P :P :P, just a story, need to work  >:( >:( >:( that's just a story. In fact, it's only a story that you even need to eat. Don't eat and what happens, you die... and that's just a story also. Your not alive right now, so what's wrong with dying? Make up another story....  8) 8) 8)

Love ya, Jed  :-* :-* :-*

Got it. We were talking about nothing actually existing. It cannot. Anything can and does.

I see nothing "wrong with dying" just didn't need to go that route too see what is and what isn't. Suffering in large comes from the idea that I could be lacking something which is not possible.

I've used a thorn to remove a thorn and discarded both. Left not with "no I" but just this, the space between everything and nothing at all. What will it be? Who knows.

Cheers back at ya j

That gratitude seems very useful too. Big difference between "thank you, that's just a story" and "fuck you story, you're just a story." Like ironing a pond.

Since, years ago,when i got what is popularly called depersonalized,I have felt like world is shrouded in some kind of darkness as if it's just a dream ,as if it's nothing(takes away all the fun out of everything).It comes back when i take long journeys or maybe when I am in emotional pain or speak about depersonalzation or read stuff like what you wrote.Maybe I need more concentrated focus to pull me up.

maybe I should only target self but there is a fear that I won't find anything there.Ah! I shouldn't post when my heart is in turmoil and my mind clouded with emotions.

Love ya.
