G, I'm aware of your interpretation of your dream, and inconsiderateness of anything that challenges that belief in your separate-self. Such inconsiderateness of anything real ran me off the main forum here,...however, the same rude and crude tactics will not run me off here.
Although you believe you are an enlightened being, and support those deluded with beliefs, the truth is that no one can "find themself" in time, through beliefs, or other conditions. Unfortunately, people like yourself and Kirtana, self-proclaimed awakened beings, want to hear words, concepts, experiences, etc., that they are already familiar with (things of time and illusion),...anything else is usually meaningless. I don't have words that you wish to hear,...my words all point to timelessness, awareness, and love (that which is beyond belief).
The indisputable truth that there is no present, instant, now, within time. I understand that such is a direct threat to your Dream Self. I understand that your thinking process is flawed, and prevents your "true self" from being observed. Thus your belief driven proselytizing has no sway with me. I am only interested in truth. I can say "I am", whereas you can only honestly say "I was".
Your "true self", that is, your Unborn Consciousness, is wholly available, but merely smothered from view by the thinking of your ego's beliefs.
Keep in mind that thinking is always in the past, and the past is part of time,...thus, if one deludes themself within the belief that verification is a thinking process, then true verification never manifests,...you remain in the "I was."
Thinking (the past) will never allow the present to be observed. To allow such would be ego's dissolution as the controller of the physical vehicle.
Thinking is not so much the problem as is a belief in thinking. Thinking (especially your thinking) is always in the past. Unfortunately, most (like yourself) believe that their thinking is real,...in other words, that the past is real, which means that the present is not real. To believe in thinking is to believe the dream/prison/time is real,...and you consistantly compliment other's unrealness.
The most important Lojong states: treat everything you perceive as a dream. The word dream is here synomynous with past, prison, time, illusion of separation, etc. We really don't "escape" prison (the prison of the dream),...we let go of the past, the "I was." Thought, memory, instincts, etc., is not the enemy in my opinion, because ultimately they do not exist,...they are not part of the real self,...what in the Mahanirvana sutra Buddha called the permanent self.
We cannot find the permanent self (Unborn Awareness) in time,...this Higher Self is not of time. Time is the past,...there is no present in time. No instant or now in time. No real reality in time.
It is said wake up from the dream,...it can likewise be said, wake up from time.
Yes, I understand that none of this interests you,...you much rather be attached to the beliefs and devotional delusions of others for your identity. And hey,...that is perfectly OK with me. You can coddle and praise any belief systems you wish,...by why spew your hate towards me? Would you not rather do your rap on the main forum, where I will not shine light on your belief driven delusions.
My being here is soley for those wishing to discuss the truth. Your hundreds of posts clearly show that you have no interest in anything true.

There is no ego without a separate-self. There is no awareness with a separate self. You are, as your belief patterns project, fully absorbed in a separate-self. There is no other explainations for your attacks on reason and truth, while exquisitely praising that which sustains the dream.
