  1. The point is to Surrender control. To let go of the illusion of control. The self-concept has no power to control anything. Let go of enlightenment and nirvana too. It’s all mental stuff.
  2. I’ll play too…the false attachment to “my” self died. That’s not running away from or bypassing anything, it’s living from real truth ..
  3. A flame is dependent upon and inseparable from countless conditions such as fuel, oxygen, thermal friction and so forth. Every flame continuously changes because fire depends upon conditions with no existence of its own. Since fire is not self-maintained it is impermanent. When conditions for fire are no longer present, we say the fire died. Yes, this is understandable, but it is important to see that each instant, the fire is a different fire, not the same fire. Furthermore, since an appearing fire depends upon conditions that are not considered to be fire, fire lacks its own self nature. After all, fire does not burn itself. So fire does not and cannot die as an entity that ever existed in and of itself.
  4. Because hysteria is just an integral part of living the burn that is life without fear, and notice how endurable the burn is. What doesn’t kill ya makes you stronger. Do what you love and let it kill you.
  5. Beautiful understanding. 👍
  6. Exactly! All form, both gross as in a tree, and subtle as in thought, depend upon innumerable conditions and are not the fixed entities that they appear to be. Nothing actually remains the same for an instant. What is perceived to be an unchanging object is on the contrary, an instantaneous, indivisible movement of disintegration and formation, even though this transience is imperceptible. It is in this sense that what is called death is also life, as the ongoing transformation of all phenomena. There’s no fixed observer, so yes, even the observer vanishes.
  7. Even consciousness is a word that has no own being or self-essence.
  8. The thought itself is real, we experience it in reality. But the content of the thought is an image literally, imaginary. When you think of a cup, you have an image of the cup in mind, but you cannot pour tea into it or drink out of it.
  9. All the names given to human beings are labels. The pronouns “I,” “you,” “she,” “he,” etc., are used to communicate. The events are happening in the moment. And if you really follow the “I,” it always comes after the fact and then creates a story. The “I” does not exist in the moment. Life really does flow freely. There really is no “you” running your life.
  10. I understand exactly what you’re saying, and have always been saying. 😃 Keep up the good work, man. Love.
  11. You are a carbon based life form, programmed to ensure the survival of the species. The same as all other life forms. On a spiritual level what meaning is to be found in “ I Am “ ? No meaning….Just Being.
  12. “Well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man” 😂 “Fuck That”
