Stuck in the mind.
Dear Gill;
If you would like to call me a name, try “Bubblehead”. My experience is of being a great vast bubble, in which everything appears: people, things, all the sights and sounds and other sense experience, plus dreams, imagination, feelings, and thoughts that appear and disappear. I am that emptiness that is the bubble, yet I am also all the incredible happenings in that bubble.
I am my mind, if you consider mind to be thoughts, yet I am not really my mind in that I am so much more. From my perspective, my mind is stuck in me rather than the other way around. It is all in me. However the “meness” that it is in, seems to pervade everything so that I am also just as much the stuff contained in the bubble, as the bubble itself. That’s how it feels from here. I hesitate to talk about it using concepts and other mental functions, like logic, since I become vulnerable to the anti mind criticism. Not only that, but I realize the impossibility of ever knowing what is outside this bubble I am. Even using a logical agrument tells me that if this bubble is consciousness and phenomena in consciousness, I can never go beyond the consciousness to prove what is there. I can not be conscious of what is outside consciousness. So if I am not stuck in the mind, I am stuck in the conscious awareness of phenomena, just like you. You mention Real, you mention “illusion”. If you could define those terms, I think we could have a discussion.
I am interested in Saniel. As far as I can tell, and I have not read much about him, though maybe enough, he is the only person that has got it right. I was jealous to read in one of your posts that you just e-mail him all the time. Haa
