Hi Mystress Angelique,
Did you get my other e-mails? I don't know whether you are holding off
on replying or whether I said something you don't like or something
else....
Anyway.... thanks for the info on memetics.... I'll have a read on this
later.... my first thoughts are this seems complex but I have been
writing lines of computer code for the last 3 weeks so it might look
different after my mind has a rest.
Can I just ask you - is what you regard as the witness state the same as
'the view' state in Buddhism - i.e. the essence of mind.
I read your website and you say there is detachment in this state. To me
if I have this right you feel absolutely present and in the moment but
not caught in the mind - no ego, no barriers, no obstacles, no
judgement, no doubt, no grasping - I think that is what you mean by this
that you are simply not attached to anything ..... everything flows
effortlessly and whatever outcome occurs in any experience does not
matter..... you are no longer seeking anything more .... you are not
limited to your body but feel at one with everything in the space around
you..... you feel as if you're floating :-)
If this is the same as 'the view' then would being able to sustain this
state be considered to be enlightenment? And if this be the case would
being able to sustain it through the death experience perhaps be the
goal of many devoted Buddhists?
In Love and Appreciation,
Rich
