All the Best,

Thank you, not2too, for 'your' re-cognition appearing here at this thread of yourself,
the 'me' that the 'you' sees here, is only a re-cognition of the 'you'
It is the ONE self .. instantaneous recognition of itself, 'The Me'
for without the 'me' there is no 'you'
It is the SAME- ONE self experiencing and expressing life AS the 'you's' and the 'me's' and the 'i's'
from unique and different character perspectives of each apparent 'other's' and arising AS 'a phantom' ..
Seemingly appearing as many awarenesses by magic, ... although really there are no separate awarenesses, just ONE
The phantom arises mutually in conjunct with senses sensed, instantly known and imaged as a 'you' and a 'me' or an 'i'
The selfs arising as apparent 'other' selfs .. are the ONE self arising AS those apparent 'other' selfs ..
apparently assuming or making up '' the apparent selfs '' of the apparent 'you's' and the 'me's'
So what 'you' are reading here on this thread is only an-'other' aspect of 'you'
from a unique individual apparent perspective of 'me' really 'you'
an individual expression, experiencing, .. arising AS apparent 'other'
but there is no 'other' .. only AS an appearance 'phantom' arising within ONE awareness.
But you know this already don't you
Hi, not2too, the penny dropped for me only about 3 years ago,
i had an instinctive knowing i'd felt since childhood,
only through a personal persistent sensing of something,
did i feel there was something not quite right with
the way people interpreted their reality, so i went on a relentless quest
to realize that what i already knew, and that was there is only ONE of us here,
and that the apparent mind body organism is a mere phantom,
this ultimate realization came in an instant, completely out of the blue.
Once this realization dawns, it never ever leaves you, i suppose for some people,
it's a bit like finding and fitting pieces of a jig-saw puzzle together, everyone is different in how they come to the realization of this.
I read books and practiced meditation and self inquiry,
i never attended any satang or guru meetings or followed any particular guru,
only through reading much literature including UGK and Nisargadatta and the WAY of the TAO
did i manage to unravel years of false conditionings and beliefs,
eventually returning to my original source, from whence i've never left or have ever been separated from.
Tony Parsons calls it the Open Secret for all to discover.
love melanie.
