The previous “just another character” insight (December 23, 2013) continues to evolve. In a group meditation where I was maintaining a no-thought condition there was a momentary detachment from identification with my body and mind. These were there, but AWARENESS was just noticing them. The separation was very subtle so that I can’t describe it other than to say that something seemed to let go of something. On deeper analysis later I decided that it was just consciousness relaxing it’s identification with something and/or relaxing its separation from everything else. It was a momentary attenuation of the ego. Ego is simultaneously an identification with a particular viewpoint and a separation from everything else. I called this attenuation “indescribable un-attachment” when it occurred. There was something very cool about it – comfortable. But if any insight makes me feel special, I throw it in the box.
