       Return to Emptiness

       Hello Jed, hope you are well.  Gratitude for your books.
       Recently, Emptiness saw itself.  That’s all there was, complete
       Emtiness around a field of Awareness, 100% alone, what I always
       Am.  Dream charater state returned, hypnotized apparently.
       Trying to return to an abiding Being of Emptiness, the state
       where Emptiness was aware of itself, whether as embodied or
       outside of the field of awareness.
       Not sure how to proceed, not sure even what’s possible.
       Would love some guidance if you have the inclination.
       Thank you.

       Dear DC:
       Thank you for your post and welcome to the forum. Your question
       addresses a very important facet of finding you True Nature.
       T/R is a rather, or more like very, tricky thing. To aim for it
       specifically is what many people try to do and fail because they
       think they can imagine what it's like. It's impossible to
       imagine what it's like because imagination must be about
       something. How can a brain imagine nothing at all? Try imagining
       no sound, no color, no object, then go on to imagining not you,
       no earth and no universe. Catch my drift?
       You had an experience, a teaser, and while close, it was not the
       ''end'' thingy. It was a reasonable facsimile thrown up by Maya.
       Experiences come and go, they have a beginning and an end. They
       pop up from time to time and can be encourage BUT, there is a
       big mistake that is almost always made following said pop-up...
       i.e., one then proceeds to try to replicate it. It's like you
       start aiming your arrow at a target that is only hologram, a
       very non-real target. Because pop-ups can be powerful
       experiences (often drug induced) they can become a life time
       distraction.
       So, anything with a beginning and an end is not ''it'', not the
       big banana you seek. Because of that, my suggestion is you
       simply thank it and move on. This applies to you, your body,
       your thoughts, your love affairs, your favorite food, your
       hates, your envies, your insecurities, etc. Everything means
       EVERYTHING and that is the reason that so few folks get that big
       banana.
       The tiniest withhold, hold on, seeking to reproduce or avoid an
       experience,  etc., contains sufficient power to block out Truth.
       What to do  ??? ??? ??? , start letting go, forgiving,
       releasing, whatever you want to call it. Thank that past
       experience for the taster, and affirm to yourself that it's ALL
       tasters until it isn't and you will, irreversibly, know when
       that arise.
       Stick with it, and write me anytime.
       Love ya, Jed
