Re: Don't know how to fully know I don't know, even though I
don't know

So, to say that I'm a 1.5: I understand that awareness holds my
perceptions, thoughts, body, etc. I get that, but only from
having been told. Though it is obviously "true" (I mean, what
could I possibly know that wasn't a perception perceived by
awareness), I don't go through the day as if it were true. The
day is spent as if I'm my body.
As for the rest of it: To say that there is no universe, that
there is an unimaginable structure, and that "nothing ever
happened" is, to my current state, wild and, well, "trippy" says
it best. It sends the mind reeling and also wanting to
understand. Even though it knows it can't understand, it spins
and spins wondering and toying with the concepts (that's all
they are to me right now). Some of that is fun, to be sure, but
it doesn't get the mind out of the way.
More to the point, to say there is no universe is, to the
imagined separate self that I am, is not something that is
simple, not something that I could possibly "just not be
noticing."
If you really know nothing, and are trying to just teach us to
know nothing, then why is it "the universe doesn't exist"
instead of "maybe the universe doesn't exist"? Maybe it's NOT
all perception, maybe there is matter. How on Earth would I
know?

I only know that I don't know, but it's deeper than that, I can
not know.
Why bother with all this writing them... it's a game, you adopt
a persona and play it out. I change persona's more than I can
count each day, but I never believe them, and neither should
you... yours or mine.
Love ya, Jed.

It's amazing to me how little I understand of all this after so
much investigation.
Would you kindly answer this: Is the truth, seen from the POV of
the separate self, mind blowing or humdrum?

Stop seeking to know what to expect. Nothing is all you should
expect. Just be with what is and drop all that stupid thinking.
You can't imagine it and can't prepare for it... other than
growing up a little.
Love ya, Jed.

Ok, fair enough. I guess there is one thing I'm getting at that
may not be obvious. You and many others out here seem to be so
close to saying there's nothing to get. It would be easier to
drop thinkg and expectation if I know it's not all for not (even
if it is, literally, all for nothing. )

I'm sorry, I can't leave this alone ... Much of the reason I'm
here instead of hounding one of the other many gurus out there
is that you seem to be so much a thinking man. It seems from
your books that you got there through thinking and it seems from
your books that you continue to do much thinking ...

Yes, thinking seems to occur here but with a big difference.
There is no ''I'' involved and no believing it involved. It is
perceived as pure fun and entertainment, a light as a feather.
Love ya, Jed.
