Life is a big mystery , and I believe that the difficulty of it all lies in its obviousness. Most human beings are unaware of the obvious because it's obvious. When we watch a good film on tv we get lost in the contents and totally forget about the screen, even though the screen is the fundamental truth behind the whole process, we get involved with the pictures in ignorance of the screen. In life we get lost in the world in ignorance of the Self or Seer. I'm curious, is this post of any interest to anyone on this site? I'm sure you've heard it all before, but it could be the start of a interesting conversation.

Hello dazza095, welcome to the forum.
Yes, life is mysterious. And I agree that the obviousness of this (THIS) is overlooked. You say that the seer and the seen are one - but then talk of being in ignorance of the seer as if the seer is somehow a
separate something that needs to be found. Is there really a seer (noun) as such?
BTW. Perhaps you might consider starting this conversation as a new thread since this one is still ongoing as a quite specific topic (nondual teachings of Christ.)
