Where is sound without a mechanism to convert the vibration to what we call sound, of course the mind converts the vibration of a tree falling to what we call the sound of a tree falling. But without the mind there is no sound, there is just vibration, so without mind there is no ego, no divine self, no duality, there is just what IS, and not even that.

If you don't understand that's fine, because to understand you need duality, its a good game don't you think ?.

lol maybe that's because what IS for you might not be what IS for someOne else. of course, it would be a difference in perspective which would indicate the existance of so called personalities. oops! oh well, must be what IS. lol

No, there is no what IS, that's just a word, a label, or a pointer, there is no what Is for you, and one for me, look past of what i am saying, but then looking past is also duality, see, when we talk about it we are flooded in paradox after paradox.
