This really is it right? There is nothing else to get!

I meditated for some time on "I am" allowing my breathing to become
deep and regular.

My body relaxed so much my arms tingled and seemed to disappear. Then
my torso, legs and so on.

My mind relaxed and started to wander.

Thoughts arose then disappeared.

I gently guided thoughts back to "I am" and to finding such a thing.

The mechanics are such that everywhere there is to look there is
relaxation.

It might appear that "I am" equates to a bliss state?


No.

And  yet..........bliss is not apart.

 

I know I am not the bliss state because sometimes the bliss state is
not and awareness is still present.

I know I am not awareness because when sleep arises awareness is not.


Consciousness as being conscious of something/some one else..........is absent.


 

Something feels great after all that relaxation the hair on my arms
feels like the thick hair on a bee's legs.

The mind is clear.

A clear mind is still a mind.
 

And IT is clear that there is no *real* me.



How is this me defined such that it's absence was noted?

After all an absence can only be noted, if a presence is apriori defined and the noting that the particular definition is absent ............in order to infer that presence is missing, isn't it?

 

The body experiences and reacts to stimulus as does the mind. Cause,
effect, cause, effect.

The witness observes the dance, sometimes hooked, sometimes witnessing
and that is not the real me either.

It seems I can only define what is not me?


If it is not you/yours.........then who/whose is it?




 

Did I miss something?



The sense of that very question...........indicates.........the continued presence of the sense of a questioning mind.

In and as bozo, there is neither the question nor the absence of the question.






From the narration, there appears to have been a good relaxed experience.

Nothing to be disclaimed or negated or frowned upon.

But chalk it up to one more hoopla notch on the gun.

And drop the gun.
