Is this a mirror? Listener question

I don’t know if this is ok or not to ask you directly? Reading Sane. Page 46. Can you please clarify re “Forgetting this, the self believes itself to be a real entity that must be secured and defended. It looks out on a world that is full of danger. It forgets that it is looking in a mirror”. I was working through an example of this - so thinking of a colleague at work who I feel threatened by/feel in danger around/get fight/flight response around because I think she is harsh and belligerent. Does this mean that harsh and belligerent thinking is arising in ‘me’ but it’s too threatening to the identity /idea of me who always has to be a ‘nice’ person/or always kind person to be liked, so I project it out onto Julie who is then actually just a mirror to the harsh and belligerent thinking in ‘me’? Or am I just getting completely tied up in knots here?

Signs of progress? Listener question

You often observe that we are "doing so well" or "really good with this" as we are in the midst of articulating when there is stage 2 happening.Meaning we are noticing the child in place, the identification pattern, the stories, etc Can you share, from observing so many people over the years, what is it about this stage you find "good" or indicating maturity somehow?

Regret and the right decision: listener question

I am wondering if you ever question your inner yes/no after that fact that it seemed so clear.For example when you decided to separate from your husband, was it a one and done decision or did you ever second guess yourself?Perhaps that would be a clue that it was not a inner yes/no if there was some doubt after the fact or as humans do we just do that?

Narcissism: listener question

May I give a suggestion for a future video? Could you speak about how to deal with narcissists based on the nondual understanding? I struggle massively with this due to my childhood trauma. Thanks

What is the value of feelings? Listener question

Need a bit of clarification around feelings/sensations. Is the only real value of them only as feedback information to the system? To observe them and feel them when they arise?I see a tendency to (especially with the ones where resistance is still very strong) to bite into them, dissect them, search what caused them, etc. But listening to the last webinars on the WELL course doing  this is totally in vain.Feels like my mind jumps in the middle of it and wants to get rid of it which makes all together even worse and prevents the body from just noticing and feeling it.

Feelings and health anxiety: listener question

I have a question about physical symptoms that continue while doing this exploration. My struggle area happens to be health fears but the question could apply to any area that seems to cause stress, anxiety, panic attacks, etc. Although I logically know that health fears are a bit of insanity since they revolve around a complete unknown, clearly something still looks real and believable because the scary thoughts and uncomfortable physical symptoms continue to arise. (For weeks before any upcoming appointment, *danger* *danger* thoughts arise as part of my childhood conditioning. They ramp up as the appointment gets closer, during it, and after it if I have to wait for results.)It makes sense that peace is the ability to have it all, and in the midst of any emotion and experience, to continually put attention on what doesn’t change. But what about the toll the physical symptoms take on the body, especially if it’s been a lifetime of them? It seems like the belief that they could be continually harming the body stands in the way of peace - it’s what causes fear and resistance now, more than the sensations themselves and the stories about the appointments and results.

Mirror and information? Listener question

You remind us that because we see everything through the lens of our own conditioning then how people appear to us isn't objectively true. This is part of why inquiring about how someone else is a mirror of our own behaviors is so powerful.You also remind us to look for information/truth in what people say to/about us. Is that because the things they say are still screened through our conditioning? Or is it because relative truth delivered from apparently someone else is still valuable?

Is it spiritual bypass not to visit the original trauma? Listener question

In response to your podcast on CBD oil as spiritual bypassing. 24 April.I love the episode by the way. I love so many of them, thank you.Is there an importance of understanding the cause of the child’s playout, or is being really present to and digging into the emotion, into what is being hidden and the experienced enough? E.g do we need to trace back to the specific trauma that occurred to know where the trigger comes from? Is acknowledging it as childhood trauma without knowing or investigating the actual source, the trauma itself spiritual bypass? ❤️
