The Nature of Noticing
A question about whether the awareness that notices the flow of experience is itself formless, and what happens when that noticing becomes identified with a self.
I have a question relating to what you said about the flow. I take you to be referring to mental activity, or whatever is happening, as "the flow" that you follow. You mentioned noticing this flow. My question is about this noticing itself. Is the true nature of this noticing formless and nameless?
Yes.
And when there is attachment to this noticing, for example a sense of location, so that it becomes "me," then it feels real and everything appearing feels real. Is that the case?
Yes, exactly.
That is what I feel. I am getting very clear about what this noticing is. It is how it feels.
Yes, exactly.
