| | The sense of "self" is made of many different qualities of sensations, many transient patterns of empty sensations, and so the problems is not these qualities of self, or the feeling of some sensations seeming to be on one side or the other, or the quality of will, or the quality of observing thing, or the quality of trying, or the quality of effort, rather the problem is that these sensations, patterns, aspects of all-encompassing formations, are not perceived clearly just as they are.
Remember, they are transient, empty, luminous, not self, not other, just more sensations arising, like more colors, or flavors, or qualities, not a problem unless something in their content is bought beyond the bare experience of it, and so the trick is to realize that that sense coming in is an opportunity to integrate those sensations also into this fluxing, causal, natural field of stuff that is arising and vanishing, to synchronize them, to feel them just as they are, rather than trying to get them to away, though if that arises, trying to get self to go away is just one more pattern worthy of the same treatment.
