Dear Lynnth:

Yes, that was what I was thinking too, but didn't want to be any ruder than usual.

How about a report of what you experienced. Let me give you a little framework.

You're feeling the chair you're sitting in, NOT! You are experiencing some sensations, perhaps. 'Chair' is a just a concept that your mind made up. You are experiencing wind from a fan, once again, NOT! You are experiencing some kinesthetic sensory input, on your skin, NO NO NO, skin is a concept. This is pretty weird for those that haven't delved into it.

When you talk about 'we', I know you are generalizing your experiences to others when you have no idea what they are experiencing. You have never had any idea, and neither have I. It's all just concepts other that your sensory experience. Upon further questioning, that too can be disassembled.

Please don't be discouraged by my mild attack. I may sound arrogant but that's because I am arrogant. But, my purpose is to slice this as close to the bone as possible. IMHO there is far too much warm fuzzy, bliss ninney, feel good, soft and cuddly b.s. being peddled by (fill in the blank). I wouldn't dream of naming names.

If you do want some good material on this, try Gregg Goode. He has it nailed beyond nails.

So, try again, share again and just be ready, I'll probably attack again, it's what I do.

love ya, Jed.
