Whether there's an answer or not, why not ask? Yes, You're right. No reason not to ask if there's a compulsion there to do so. Not that I'm really trying to be 'right', here. You've suggested, as has Andrew (who, oddly, I seem to miss a bit, these days), that a willingness to be 'open' can be healthy, and I've resonated with that. That's really all I'm trying to say with the question--that openness to self-inquiry can be healthy. |

Dear Dude/Dudette, What would that be, "that which observes the identity poker game"? Sincerely, The Great Blue Hole Of Belize You mean you can't identity with the observer of the identity poker game without knowing what it is? Dear Dude/Dudette, Rephrase, please. Sincerely, The Great Blue Hole Of Belize |

Dear Dude/Dudette, Both kidding oneself and being open honest and sincere with oneself is engaging with something called 'oneself', i.e. playing identity poker. Sincerely, The Great Blue Hole Of Belize And that's a bad thing, I'm guessin..? Because Niz or Ramana or tolle Or Enigma said so? Dear Dude/Dudette, What did I write? Sincerely, The Great Blue Hole Of Belize |

Dear Dude/Dudette, Maybe Ramana et alia were rather encouraging not to conclude. Sincerely, The Great Blue Hole Of Belize Good point. Then, I must surmise that you no longer heed such encouragement, yourself, as your initial sentiment is, itself, a conclusion. Dear Dude/Dudette, You want conclusion-free discussions about 'Ramana et alia'? Sincerely, The Great Blue Hole Of Belize |

Was there a point? Sincerely, The Great Blue Hole Of Belize My point was there there's no need to take on the 'should's and should not's' proposed by others...they are excess baggage and when we 'en-light'en' we drop that which is weighing us down....that would include the idea that engaging with 'oneself' is some kind of problem to be remedied. |
