       Your Brett eulogy is a whack on my head :o. Twenty some years
       ago I looked at the people in rat race and thought to myself
       that I wouldn't want to live like that. I put up a fight, but
       Maya got the upper hand. Disheartened, the tendency to slip into
       a semi comfortable coma is strong. But the little bastard is
       still nagging inside, well, he brought your books to me.
       Sometimes I question if I still have enough strength to go
       through this. But how can I live with myself after knowing all
       this and not taking action? After all, what's there to lose?
       Actually, I feel the excitement in anticipation of the upcoming
       fight.  The only worry is that it somehow doesn't arrive.

       Good News! It's already started. But, I suggest viewing it as an
       exercise in awareness, a welcoming embrace. A fight only make
       the other side appear bigger.
       Love ya, Jed.

       Indeed. No need to create another belief (I am in a fight) while
       dismentaling the believes.
       I am getting a better hang of SA now. I go through my life
       periods, find events that still have emotional charge, ask
       myself what I have to believe to have that emotion, see that the
       belief is untrue, stay with the words/thoughts/images/emotion
       until they dissipate. My wife is also doing this and is better
       at it than me. She has better emotional flow whereas for me a
       lot of the emotions are suppressed and it takes some effort to
       allow them to surface.
       I was contemplating the cogito. I think that I AM is only when I
       am examming this issue. When I am lost in believes then I don't
       know I AM. I guess when abiding non-dual awareness is present
       then I AM is also constant. But what about sleep, or the
       twilight period before dead sleep? Can you say I AM then? Or
       maybe you have full awareness during sleep? Or this is a non
       issue when there is not a self to care about it?

       I am implies you are, can you be sure off that... hmmmm. How
       would you know you are?

       Cannot assume there is anyone else out there:)
       The name "non-dual awareness" says it all, there is not one to
       be aware of another.
       The effect of lightening up when the believes are gone is quite
       noticeable. At this point liberation no longer feels
       unreachable, it will just take some cleaning effort. (I caution
       myself to never underestimate Maya). I am amazed that it's so
       easy compared to all the meditation, study, this and that
       practices.
       Currently I am encountering a deep seated belief: what I do to
       others will come back to me. This innocent looking belief
       probably is deep in the human psyche. Even one of the ET races
       take this to be one of their four recognized truths. I am quite
       exited to encounter it.

       What you do to others will come back??? What others and when.
       That's all phooey. But you did say it's a belief.
       Love ya, Jed.

       Did a re-examination of this apparent self, I found that in
       addition to "I" not knowing how to think. act, feel it's really
       not different from another other object appearing in my world.
       The sense that this is no different from a dream deepens.
       I am not totally convinced that there cannot be more than one
       truth. I agree that truth has to be true all the time,
       everywhere, not relative, apply to everything. But that still
       doesn't prevent there being more than one truth. Why cannot
       there be two truths coexisting?

       There is no two of anything, other than in the illusion.

       I can now accept there is no two truths.
       Instead of stepping off a cliff I seems to be walking down a
       mountain path. Not that I don't want to step off the cliff like
       a fool, life just hasn't presented that opportunity to me. These
       days I just constantly remind myself of the C-Rex view, see and
       nullify my habbits bit by bit. No big battles, but a lot of
       house cleaning.
       Somethings I know is not true, such as I have to have a job, but
       my knowing is not deep enough for me to take action. I don't
       want to force it, because who else is the forcer but the ego. On
       the other hand, not forcing it is from the ego too. This is the
       old question of to do or not to do.  I am watching it and
       letting the unsatisfaction build.

       between do and not do it just let beingness be... try it.
