Are any of us really here or are we just random arrangements of subatomic particles?

Weee oooooo weee ooo weee ooo!

Once that we understand who we are and what makes us who we are we can really utilize our time and efforts in things that are really meaningful to us. But at the end all the particles that make your human body go back to the universe. The only thing that is really ours is our conciousness.

Now lets drink and eat, cuz tomorrow we shall become compost!

In mediation, i have watched my anxiety and fear dissappear, and there remain only tranquility. I have watched thoughts pop up and parade in front of me. I have tried to see the me, the i that sees, and been unable. Therefore, i wonder at times, if i do exist, apart from all the thoughts and processes passing before, um, 'me', for lack of a better word.

I used to wonder what exactly the eastern style enlightenment was. After a few yrs, i found out that all it is is finding out, 'seeing' perhaps, who we really are.

There is an exercise that two people can do. Have one person ask the other who are?. They might say, i'm a man or woman. The next question is, yes but, aside from that who are you?. Keep repeating and answering.

Yes I do! Finally. I always knew, but I was hiding out for too long. Luckily I found me again and am loving the ability to be authentic.

I wondered/worried that the world I perceived wasn't real/was imaginary when I was like 8 or 9 years old. I thought, "What if I think I'm a really nice kid because what I think is my life isn't really real? What if secretly I'm beating people up in the real world and I just don't know it because I can't see it happening?"

Yes, I really was that kind of kid. Concerns about parallel universes before age 10... Not a good candidate for linear thinking a la Torre Di Guardia.

You can actually ask yourself the question 'who?', w the idea of who is thinking, feeling or whatever. Then, try earneslty to sense who it is. You probably won't find who it is, but, the exercise helps to clear the mind and get out of negative thoughts or thought loops. It's a mind reset, fi your will, like a reset for a computer when it's gone haywire and you need to get it back to a default state. Likewise, there seems to be a default state for the mind.
