It involves no other, no authority, no outside agency. My group (Omkaradatta) carries the subtitle, " There is nothing out there " ;-). One defines a 'self-center' through a periphery, " outside " , " out there " , " other " . When the periphery isn't there, the center isn't there. For example, when one senses 'ego' in someone else, it is one's own ego. The " feeling of egoicness " is here, not there. It is one's own reaction, like a spark jumping from " my " projected periphery to " my " introjected center. No other is actually involved. When this is clear, it can be 'looked into' directly. --- End forwarded message --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But who wants that to happen? Let's be honest. As all the sages have said, nobody wants it. And " nobody " gets it, the second nobody wants it ;-).

To say " there is nothing out there " could be understood as out there there is nothing (so there is some out there). -t- For example, when one senses 'ego' in someone else, it is one's own ego. geo> One senses the the other mind/body feels there is some inner separate entity....although there is not.
