That's a great word - if I hold on to my thoughts I am in the way of
my own spontaneity!

It could be a skin cell making a bid to escape to make dust!
No single cell in my body is the same as the body I had seven years
ago.
There is no real personality, it is imagined, there is no real
physical me either.
The real me might be multiplex of energy waveforms holding particles
in form from birth to death.
Then beyond 1963 the energy that apparantly moves always here
particles?
always here
I assert particles appearing as people cannot answer the question.
There IS a definition of doer.
Perhaps apparant people carry out subtasks? Which by definition
would still be DOING.

There is a doer . But that doer is not an individual doer. It is a
universal doer.
That doer could be a molecule of protein in your body trying to
fight bacteria in your anus.

There is no doer of things. Things just happen.
The best example I can give is :
When you cut a snake's head off, and chop the body into several
pieces, the pieces still keep on moving.
So who is the doer ? Its all a movement of the chemicals in the cell.

Very interesting, thanks Marko.
Could it be. That the Buddha is saying. Sentient beings.
Circumstance has always dictated the occurrence. We in our selfish
delusions believe we are individual and as such, are doing deeds.
This we know to only be true in a superficial sense. That from the
deeper aspect of our being we now see how in real trams, there is
only a momentary whole-ness in a perpetual change motion. How we
with these simple senses are not equipped to experience most of th
e “
Events happening” and therefore use intellect to “imagine”
reality.
I never meet the Buddha but I love the stuff he said. A beautiful
mind. I think we are very lucky he was rich and famous. They
took
notice of his words and recorded them. Most enlighten teachings
are ignored.
