[QUOTE="JayJay, post: 33131, member: 147"] Yeah, it is very weird to even dare to claim things such as "Drop them all". Illusory for me in this context represents the fact that we are not the ones who do the liking nor the hating. There is just liking or hating. There is doing, but not doer. That's what I mean. Regarding the introspection about ego I agree a lot. The more I meditate, the more I notice my conditioning by life experience. I mean, it is hard to tell until what extent I'm "free" given the fact that I'm starting to observe how thoughts come from the mind, but no from me during meditation. Someone on the internet told me that there is thinking, but not a thinker. But I do believe something: the more introspection about ego, the more "free" you become, the more I start noticing my "psychological shadow" regarding defense mechanisms such a as paranoia or egocentrism in the form of thoughts that appear in my mind in stressful situations.
