Except that there is 'someone', seriously.. and it's 'you', 'cause here 'you' are posting to other someones..

Wonderful it is, to indulge your fantasies, but.. they are uncovincing stories that reconnect you with the need to enlist others to help you like you stories better..

Why go out in the 'hot sun' when it's 10° F in the shade? because 'it works', like the rest of Life, it's relative..

You say "just be still", then try to excuse your identification with 'you' and with those that you have chosen to talk to on this 'public forum'.. that you come here to talk to 'others' is the evidence that you don't 'actually' believe what you post..

Life just 'is', regardless of what 'you' believe about it.. pretending there is no 'you' is simply another 'story' you have to validate.. when you lose the need to convince others that your 'stories' should be their stories, the 'isness' makes sense.. try it.. evangelical 'nobodyism', really feels strange..

Be well, all else is..

Why not stay in the shade? Din

Hello,

If there is no one to identify with while being/experiencing this physical being, then why am I experiencing this?

To prove it is an illusion? To what end does this serve? To show there is no me? Even if one, lets say, realizes this, doesn't one continue to experience the self?

Peace

aside from a thought in your head,

a simple perception

If you changed the script to read

'I think I identify with thought because I am granted the ability to think ... the two seem to go hand in hand lol'

you will be able to answer the question for yourself

Edited ... to make more sense (to me lol)
