Hello Everyone - and thanks!

[Guest guest]

Hi again

 

I'm not used to and find the structure a bit confusing -

so I thought I'd add a comment HERE as an acknowledgement to all

those who have greeted me with comments! I wasn't expecting such a

large response. I suppose it's because I posted the dream - but I

still find it extraordinary that very the night after I join this

group, I go to bed and have a powerful dream about Nisargadatta; and

then, on waking the next day have this awareness of I am-ness coming

online! And a very pleasant experience it was too. As I said this is

only the 2nd time in ten years.

 

I've noticed people make a lot of references to Zen Buddhism here.

That's interesting because I've read a little about Zen, and I've

often read of Zen Masters who refer to other zen masters as " a bunch

of corpses " , and corpse is a term Nisargadatta uses.

 

Since the message of my dream seemed to be showing me that it's time

to stop with verbal pursuits and do some I-am yoga, then I don't

expect to be saying too much here - again, I'm reminded of the zen

masters, when they say of koans " understanding won't help you " .

 

But I thank everyone for their kind advice!
