Direct pointing experiment

Hi folks, Im trying an experiment over on another forum.
Here is the link..

This wont really apply to alot of people here who are beyond stream entry I would imagine, or to people who are really really comfortable with their progress etc, but I welcome you to give it a go, especially someone more early on in this whole process.

The ideal person is someone who feels like they are in control of their life but conceptually understands there is no real self/controller/experiencer but just doesnt "get" it.

This doesnt have to interrupt whatever Dho practice you are currently doing.

Im not going to claim a successful outcome is "stream entry" or any path, quite simply because I dont know, and after a bit of struggling to find out, my final answer was "inconclusive but something not far off stream entry"
I started a thread in the direct pointing section (link below) if you want to use it to respond.

Its also worth noting that it is my practice here that has helped me get 10 times more out of my initial no self realisation and really really enjoy life than anything else. So basically, what I mean is, treat this like something to add to your toolkit, or just a side experiment, not your escape route from concentration or insight practice.

So if your interested in trying, reply in the direct pointing thread here

PS, If you're not interested in trying it and have an opinion or criticism about direct pointing, all I can say is "meh", just not in the mood for arguing at the moment, maybe when Im less sleepy!!emoticon
