Loosing the being behind the eyes

[itsadistraction]

I can't help thinking I am behind the eyes somewhere. Even if I am an infinite dark void I feel like it's behind the eyes somewhere almost like looking through a window into this realm. However I know there is no black infinite void in that direction or in any direction. Or is there?

Any advice on how to shake this image?

That what the soul sees. When I was in my soul view I saw clearly I was looking through a window into this reality. So everything I feel and thought of what was behind the window was entirely created by me.

If you feel intimate with someeone and are close all the feelings of them liking it and feeling pleasure from being around you is created by you.

The void you feel is Shiva , god. You are just a metaphysical being looking into physical by a magic portal

Can you locate yourself anywhere? No...that should be the first trigger.  Now -  what do you think you are?  A dark void?  My God.  A void is but a thought.

Visual information tends to play a dominant role in our sense of self-identity. It's in the homo sapiens cards. Close your eyes, where are *you* now?

What being are you referring to? Could it be perhaps a feeling-sense of being located behind the eyes and between your ears? Keep asking: who am I?

Focus on getting who you are, and hey, remain open. Maybe you turn out to be a carrot or something, you don't know.

I am severely allergic to carrots, but depending on the context. It’s a condition called oral allergy syndrome.

For example, I can eat boiled carrots from a soup, yet taking a bite from a raw carrot or drinking carrot juice can literally kill me.

Same thing, different context.

My point was be open when wondering about who you are. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, my example ties in with that. The deceptive nature of discovering who we are is not to be taken for granted.

Until humans can expand their definition of existence as something that does not appear, they can never awaken. It makes perfect logical sense in that something has to be housed within nothing. That nothing has to expand infinitely otherwise you can't walk down the street. So a non physical space must hold all physicality. It's simple. I don't like saying stuff like that because it can fool the ego into grasping something.

It's why its better to just call it a frame, an empty black frame, a mind, so it cannot be grasped. A character on your tv screen cannot grasp the screen because its inside the screen, the same is true of the human identity. It cannot grasp it, because it is it. 

Another way to look at it, close your eyes imagine you are walking down the street, then realize....you are dreaming all that. 

Watch this till you can see that this screen your typing words on can be zoomed into forever.

Realize now everything that you are, the sensations, ideas, everything that your senses show you. everything that is right now. then melt it all together, until all that remains is a uniform soup . In this soup there is no center, no edges, there is really nothing, but it is everything.  This is all existence. It will blow up in your face, that is. the abysmal unfathomable total existence, what you are.

The eyes are a very deceiving part of the body. I believe it could very well be the eyes that make you feel like you’re a being behind them inside your head. I mean if our eyes weren’t located where they are, and instead were looking out from our stomach area, then there’s every chance I feel as though most would believe we were a being located somewhere behind the eyes in the stomach. 
Total self deception going on from what I can tell, because of the eyes. 
I find the eyes very intriguing with how they contribute to give us a false sense of where we are located as a being. The majority think they’re  here, behind the eyes, looking out through them at an external world. It’s just not the case

Believing you have eyes is one of the traps. Why do you think some people created the headless way to help people get it? LOL. You don't experience eyes. You don't see your eyes, you need a mirror to see your eyes. I'm not saying you don't realize that by the way, I'm saying people don't get it when they say direct experience.

If a person never saw a mirror, a lake, or any type of reflection, they would never know they had eyes. They would know something was there, but would never know what they look like.
