Illusory Identity II - Nothing remains exactly the same from one moment to the next. - Battlecry of Freedom

 

If not existing in the body, perhaps it may be felt that identity is therefore intangible, dwelling in energy or mind. Analysis, however, also cannot reveal anything that exists permanently and unchanging in the emotions or thoughts. Nothing remains exactly the same from one moment to the next. Through analysis the mind is discovered to be fundamentally empty.

The delusion that identity is a something, that exists independently, continually, and without changing, creates the need to protect and support it.

The illusion of a self-existent identity is isolating and selfish – I am in pain, which is much more important than your pain. The illusion of a self-existent identity prevents enjoyment and appreciation – you are happy, but I cannot appreciate it, because it is not my happiness.

We practise living the view to encourage the entire context of our lives to become our practice. - Illusory Advice

 

Living the view is perhaps one of the most fundamental practices in the Aro gTér Tradition. We practise living the view to encourage the entire context of our lives to become our practice. Living the view is the interface between our formal practice and our everyday lives. In one sense, living the view is the most advanced Buddhist practice because it means taking the recognition of the nonduality of emptiness and form—the realised state—into every moment of our existence. At a more accessible level however, we practise living the view by trying to actively recognise the infinite permutations of emptiness and form in every facet of our lives, so that everyday experience starts to reflect the nonduality of emptiness and form.
