  1. Mind wants security first always. So then the mind is going always lean to illusion because of that.
  2. People here that they are not the mind from teachings and then the mind/me feels soothed by that knowledge that says I am not my thoughts. If we are afraid and in conflict we believe we are not “our” mind. This is why it’s destructive to depend on others for psychological help.
  3. Best thing I ever did was stop looking for a way out and just gave attention to myself. Understanding the me/mind is number one on ending conflict or fear.
  4. Have you tried to understand “the me/mind” at all before?
  5. You got it dude. Also I don’t know what you mean by absolute perspective.
  6. To say I am not the mind is dis-identification. Still caught in illusion that I am not mind
  7. When I divide “myself” from mind that is identitying with mind. Tricky me
  8. To say I am not my ego/thoughts is why there is conflict or fear. Keeps the illusion going.
  9. There is only conflict or fear when I say to myself I should be somthing other than what I am. That is what happens when we divide me and mind. Conflict/fear can only exist when I am seperate from mind.
  10. To look at the mind as if you are not it is why there is conflict.
  11. Fosho man. I just saw this connection recently. And fear only exist when I see “me” as different from the mind or past.
  12. I feel ya lol..maybe the mind is the past dude.. the mind thinks it is looking at the past, but what is looking at that past? Is the past looking at itself but is not aware of that? This is a big one dude.
  13. Fear looking for a way out keeps the time loop in effect.
  14. Fosho..it causes conflict. Attachment/obsessional thinking/fear=time.
  15. If there is motive to ‘become’, as in desire, or fear, can that lead to being-freedom?
  16. Does a technique, path, subduing create conflict?
  17. Doesn’t time/me ask how to get out of the delusion of time?
  18. Can there be a ‘quietness’ if there is conflict? The achieved part.. is there a reward to be had?
  19. Can you write the question again dude? I’m not getting it. I see time. That caught my attention. I have been observing all the sneaky movement of time lately.
  20. Seriously . I never tried so hard to understand something in whole life. I really had to dig deep to understand them/me.
  21. Fosho man. But Debating or choosing between practice or non-practice means we don’t understand what the hell is going on.
  22. Technique to get somewhere...resist what is? Is there freedom in that?
  23. I would say it’s wise to at least attempt to understand before we disagree.
