It is possible to experience the perceptual input very much the way you did before you objectified the world. There is a perspective in which everything ap...

I could reel out the bookworm answer but I'll refrain :) May I respond honestly. From 'my' experiences, the dream character's traffic remains (the mnemonic debris etc) but the grasping at it, manipulating it, has slowed. Or often the choice as to whether to associate with it or not, is apparent. Th...

If you *can* define it, you're still me-ing. At a recent gathering I ask how many people wanted to become enlightened. Almost everyone raised their hand. I ask if anyone could define enlightenment. No one raised their hand. I guess that would be right. Did they then lean in for the concrete explana...

But I think it's best not to try to construct a beliefsystem or a set of arguments out of some speakers sayings whether it be Tony Parsons or whoever.

Teachers should never be quoted out of context. They speak to the moment and to the unique set of circumstances that arise only once. You contort what Tony says to fit your pre-conceived notions.
