B' FWIW I got where you were coming from with the original comment and did not hear it as describing some constant state of prayer or some constant mind-splinter asking "who am I? what am I?..." over and over again. What I took you to mean is what I meant to convey when I say that every instant is an oppportunity. Yeah, more like a constant hum than a chant. More like contemplation than prayer. And all with a ... an inquiring tone to it. Impossible to describe with words, otherwise. And yeah, I started to read that post of yours, earlier, but it seemed rather like your own chant, with which it is impossible for me to refute or argue with, so I made no comment on it. It's all cool. Diff'rnt strokes fer diff'rnt folks, and all. ... well then obviously you are a deluded little-forum-punk who is clearly unconscious and takes everything personal and yer feet stink too ...

Actually, other friends think I'm just 'out to lunch'.

No sympathies necessary. My ears have rung ever since I could remember, so I don't even notice it, 99% of the time. It's not really much of a problem.

Demolition is quite a different matter from the construction phase that trf references ... demolition is the bizniz I'm interested in. No more refits, extensions or paint jobs. Dear Dude/Dudette, That sounds very promising. But remember: we don't take prisoners here. So, no complaints later, okay? Your annihilation will be final. Sincerely, The Great Blue Hole Of Belize

Sincerely, The Great Blue Hole Of Belize well strictly speaking I guess the description that best fits what people come out with is that every word that everyone speaks or writes is channeled and what it comes down to is how much wah-wah-pedal and other personal effects there is modulating the signal.

Dear Dude/Dudette, Yes. The static/noise can be deafening. Usually it's thermal noise because the receiver is running hot due to over-enthusiasm. The influence of atmospheric noise from a nearby new age bookstore shouldn't be ignored either. Sincerely, The Great Blue Hole Of Belize

My point is, expectation of what you are going to receive is a barrier. You receive nothing. There is nothing added. Whether you get a nice big pop is dependent on the type of blow to your ego and how big of a spiritual ego you have riding on your shoulders. It also relates to the kind of experiences you are prone to having, psychic phenomena and OBE, or just being Joe blow, sack of meat. Are you content with an "oh" or are you expecting an "OH MY FU.CKING GOD!"? Ah I hadn't heard of Rose's pop so thanks for that. I’m content with either an “oh” or OMFG. I used to have expectations around spiritual stuff such as transforming into some peaceful radiant being floating around, and fixing what I saw as all my character flaws, culminating in an awakening for me. That stuff has been steadily dropping away over time without much involvement from my part, I just want to know true nature (even though I don't know what that is ahead of actually knowing it) If I was to speculate, I think I’d be in for the vanilla version

Here's a question earnest: "what is it like without expectation?" <-- sort of similar to the coming empty concept. I can't say its no expectations continuously. Sometimes they can sneak up on me,.. a feeling of this moment isn't enough or not how I want it to be. When the expectation drops away it just goes all quiet. This, right now, as it is, is seen as complete and perfect.

looks like a familiar fork in the road.. If I may be so bold, if you don't want to get teached, be challenged, or have your worldview savaged by some non dual tiger, then perhaps take this as an opportunity to leave this thread. I have no problem whatsoever with being challenged, nor do I have a problem with participating in a thread where others voice their opinion and observations....How 'bout you? I may have completely misread the situation. It looked like things were heading into a story of "why are people picking on me" and snippy comments about how desperate some teachers are to get their hands on a student (my words) I saw this from Enigma Nobody has said anything, and already you guys have got a story about it. And this later from Beingist Yeah. My bad on that one. (I started it). My point I guess was that yes of course you're free to voice your opinions and observations. My request was that if you, or anyone, is going to cry foul in this particular thread that they move along to another thread. And of course you can completely ignore me if you like

Is this on a personal level (authentic self) or impersonal level (what am I)?
