  1. @JustinS yes, I have watched that video. I will watch it again, I found it very usefull. Thanks for your answer, It helps to get things in a more clear way I still wonder, at what point does that silence as a form of answer become a realization, an insight? At what point the identification with the body/mind goes? .Is it a matter of keep doing self inquiry, to keep meditating...
  2. Yes, I agree with you. It does matter
  3. @JustinS thanks, much clear now. These past days I've been asking myself a lot through out the day such questions like " who is aware" "who is getting Hurt" "Who is percieving " etc And silence always follows as a form of answer as I ask myself from a place of genuine curiosity, like really really truly!! who I am... And the answer is always the same, just silence...nothing appears in my mind. And when that happens I remain with that silence for as long as I can until a thought arises. Even though dead is an illusion, is a very real one that is why I was wondering how a self- realized person would deal with dead. Thanks everyone for your answers :-)
  4. @Natasha thanks for your answer!
  5. @Arik Thank you, I do appreciate your answer and the key advice of focusing on the unwell sensation.
  6. @Emerald Wilkins thanks for your time and answers.
  7. @Emerald Wilkins also would you mind explaining how do you exactly do the strong determination sitting style Vipassana?
  8. @Emerald Wilkins thanks. I do that aswell, I try to remind myself and ask "who is aware " who is percieving" etc It gets to a point where I think I know in a intellectual level that there is no one percieving, no identity... So when I ask myself those questions, silence follows as a form of answer so I was wondering, what separates that silence being the answer and actually having an insight, a realization, that which we call "becoming enlightened"? Any idea, thoughts about it?
  9. @FindingPeace I like what you just wrote about failure. Thanks for that insight. May I Know from what part of uk are you?
  10. @Emerald Wilkins Thanks, may I know what tecnique or tecniques you use. is self enquiry the direct method?
  11. What we call identity, it´s just an activity of the mind. if there is no one having an experience, then what remains is the fact of just awareness being aware of itself. But I wonder. let´s say that a man who has lost his family, would thoughts, feelings and sensations related to sadness, lost etc arise in his mind. I´m really curious of how the activity in his mind would be... his day to day after his lost. These days I find quite difficult to work in self-development, to dive deep into it, to study, to do different techniques etc and at the same time realize that there is no one who is improving, that in fact that one who I believe I am is just an activity in the mind, it´s an illusion. Very paradoxical... Thanks @Khin @Natasha for your answers!
