D: One question that rarely seems to arise in inquiry:

 

How am I investing in a self/other division, in order

to have a feeling of relating?

 

Without any self or other, what is being?

 

What is being ... now?

D: I am informing you about how I felt when you did what you did

to someone else. And when you said what you said, I felt this

way about you, and I need to tell you how I feel about you,

and what you did to someone else.

 

And if there were no " you " to inform about how I feel about

what you did and said, and no someone else that you said

and did things to ...

 

Then what would all this be?

 

What would this world be, with all its manipulations,

greed, deviousness, killings, stealings, image-promotions?

And celebrations, victory-dances, achievements, and

accomplishments?

 

What would this be if it weren't selves and others existing

and doing these things to others and receiving things

from others?

D: Oh yes. And those claiming to be rid of it, as well.

 

I want to convince you to be rid of self.

 

And I want to convince you that I am rid of self.

 

And how many gurus have required that line of nonsense?

 

And if there never were a self to be rid of?

 

Then what would this be?

 

And what would this communicating be, now, with no selves

ever having been involved in it?
