Wow this clicked just now with the memory of what I saw the other day :
The other day as I was driving I had a glimpse of what it means to be innocence personified, that without ‘me’ there is an immaculate purity permeating everything and it is so clean, with not even a trace of ‘dirt’, to be that purity is to be innocence personified
And of course this is not only the case with this flesh and blood body but all other bodies also. It particularly stood out to me what Richard said that :
when a fellow human being tells me they are an identity inside the body I have to take their word for it
So this ties in perfectly with what Vineeto wrote to Claudiu below :
And because you wrote yesterday about having “bit of a tiff w/ my partner last night” you don’t really have far to look. How wonderful and utterly beneficial will it be when you never ever need to “stop getting upset” , never have to be “decoupling one’s emotional reactions from what is factually happening” (link ) and this is exactly what will eventuate once you give your partner all of you, in order to free both yourself and her from the crippling emotional reactions that inevitably happen from time to time as long as you are a feeling being
So not only is it that there will be no entity inside this body to get sour in the first place, there will be no entity inside any other body to argue with either, that simple!
I remember Richard writing that it is impossible for him to even begin to bicker, nevermind starting a fight. Of course this is the case, just who would be fighting with who exactly haha.
This means that any fears about what it could be like when I self-immolate are completely irrelevant. It’s planning for what an imaginary entity will do with regards to other imaginary entities.
All my worries, plans, schemes etc they all depend on me existing in the first place, there is no need for solutions when the problem itself is eradicated.
