@mp22 Not exactly like that. You have to completely let go of yourself to become no-self, no-thing. Just saying to yourself that you are no-self is just more "you" trying to be no-self. That's a really long hit or miss road (except for using some kind of drug to force a no-self experience). Which is not my first choice.

You could look at it this way. You know how a computer has an operating system. You can't use the old OS to reinvent itself into a completely new OS. So the fastest way to install a new OS, is to completely remove the original OS first. "You" temporally become no-self or non existent. If your willing to let go of the OS that you run on now, the new OS will be installed in the flash of an eye.  You see the hardest part about this is letting go of the old OS. The rest is easy!

 

 

Thank you, will keep trying :-)

@Natasha   with that video I had an experience of feeling all my body completely. I even noticed the blood running into the veins and the breathing, the air entering in the lungs. It was amazing, but I couldn't "reproduce" that experience again.

Yes. Leo did a great job guiding through one's body looking for 'self' that is nowhere to be found. What we think to be 'me' is just a thought. What we percieve to be 'ourself' (body-mind) doesn't belong to anyone. Yet the illusion of 'self' is so strong and persistent, it makes it nearly impossible for billions to see through it. And those who have seen through the illusion will tell you it's the most overlooked thing ever.
