Guest guest Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Aiming at the reality in the direct way,including pointing to Ananda 1. Do you exists? Answer*: It is obvious and evident that I exist, denying it will imply that I must exist to deny it. Note: Here we are pointing at the Sat aspect = beingness. 2. How do you know that you exist? Answer*: Simply, I know it. I exist and I know that I exist. Note*: Here we are pointing at the Chit aspect = Knowingness. 3. Who knows that it exists? Answer: When I try to to find the knower,there is nothing only knowingness, aware peacefull space, silence no-thingness, that includes a sensation of fullness and well- being. Nowhere I can find an entity separated from Consciousness. There is no " me " , nor a substantial, autonomous object to which it is possible to ascribe the function of knowing and existing by himself. I can only find ideas and sensations emerging/disappearing in this Present space that I am. Note: Here we pointing at the Ananda aspect = bliss, or peace and to the absence of a separated autonomous I. In summary: The realization of our true nature and the absence of a volitive and autonomous I, existing by itself, separated from the Present Awareness that we are, is only a mere illusion reinforced by the social conventions. When the cause of the suffering [ taking the idea of an I as a fact, victim of the suffering ] is revealed as a fallacy or mental creation, immediately disappears its consequent effect, that is, the suffering. >Atagrasin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I see what is self-evident, right now, based on present evidence alone, and, not based on memory, or, assumption, or, social convention, I discover there is no " me " , but, only infinite space, a limitless, luminous capacity which gives rise to all things. It's amazing, awesome. Love, Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
