“There is no self. Never was. There is only life arising or happenin .
You are not who you think you are. (Literally) find out if you exist at all outside of thought… and what is left if you are not?
You exist because there is this thought ‘i’ that appears… and then you believe it (‘it’ becomes something/somebody), and then it has a life – and all of life appears… ‘your’ life but that life is not you, and not who you really are in reality you are nothing and no-one.
You are life itself happening as it is now – and there is nothing outside of thatthe illusion is that you are personal nothing can happen to you because there is no youyou can’t be harmed (the body can perish – but it’s not your body anymore than that flower is your body – it’s the body of life).
Close your eyes and search for the boundary of “you.” With your eyes closed, where do you end and where does the world begin? With your eyes closed, are you aware of a boundary between the skin and clothes, or is this only a kind of blurry sensation? When you open your eyes, what happens? Is there a “you” looking out of two holes in your head? Are you doing the seeing? Or are the sights just here, without any boundary?
