The sense of I am never changes. Anyway I think you have to try and see for yourself. What happens doing this you have to find on your own, because if I tell you (as I did) you will be expecting that. Try and see. All I can say is that it is worth trying (at least for me, now I am doing it every day several times) Sent via BlackBerry from Vodafone -----Original Message----- From: Mark Ty-Wharton <[email protected]> Date: Sun, 29 Aug 2010 01:09:55 To: [email protected]<[email protected]> Cc: godszen<[email protected]>; Advaita<[email protected]> Subject: Re: Emptiness Let me get this absolutely straight (what you are doing) so I can do the same thing and see what is true for me By watching "I am sense" you mean? The sense of myself that I have had since I was a small boy - the me that knows it is me - the same part my mum might have said "I don't feel any different now I am seventy to the way I felt when I was three, I remember some things like they happened yesterday, I am still the same person" about? Not my identity - that which I attach to the sense which makes me who I am by what I do in life? So I watch the sense of consistently being the same person my whole life - and get bliss? Then I disappear? Then?
