And you're choosing to see my response that way because it doesn't match your beliefs.
I became aware of this tiny spark of something when I was a little child. I knew that all the external crud (the body etc.,) wasn't me. But I also knew there was a 'me' inside.

Again, you are saying this because my 'try' turned out differently than what you wanted. You've praised Topology and not even asked him how big a peek he took. How much peeking are we to do then? Half an hour? Half a day? What?

That's simply a tag to do with how many posts one makes. Nothing else.

You are pushing me in order to bend to your beliefs. Why? Why can't you accept that I may have a different result to what you are pushing me towards?

Athymari - Can you locate a self and know 100% that it is 'you'?
Forget what happened before, look and see if you can hold in your mind, 'you'...

I see that this body-mind was raised in a cultural sea of Menes and ignorance of how to treat each other with compassion and understanding. What I called "myself" was a linguistic meme-plex invented by this body-mind's linguistic faculty to cope with stress and other people referring to my name and pointing at "me". This "me" was real in as much as thinking made it so.
Next?

Squatch - I have no beliefs for you to bend to. I'm curious, what is this tiny spark you claim to have found?
How do you KNOW it is 'you'?
100%?

I can locate something and i can move my.. 'point of awareness' inside me. I figured that I am a dream like projection of the real me thats elsewhere and decided to try find that real me. I came to this forum and actively began to look and its started to fill.

Topology - "This "me" was real in as much as thinking made it so."
Boom.
The rest is a little mind made 'understanding' and not what you see when you look.
Can you see it working? Can you see how you believed in this to be a 'you'?
Can you see behind the curtain of self?
