To me ,my experience is a permanent self ,a center-point who is experiencing things
i have emotions
i have a body
i have a mind
my thoughts
my dreams
my personality or individuality
And i clearly feel that there is an "I" exists
But all the scriptures ,either it be Vedanta or Buddhism whatever ,says this "I" is an illusion ,or as daniel said
"I is not a sensation, I is a pattern, a set of shifting qualities, and it is this strange, poorly perceived back and forth oscillation between that pattern of sensations and the other interspersed patterns of sensations that gives the appearance that this pattern is watching that pattern, but they are actually just two patterns oscillating, interplaying, and nothing more than that "
Now what i am thinking like ."Stream Entry" is the time when one first tasted the enlightenment
So this real experience of "No-Self" pops in at the time of stream entry ?,The "I" or the"Ego" is destroyed completely?
I am not talking about higher concentration states,rather permanent state of " No-I'ness" happens only when one is in Higher Paths than in stream entry?
just curious
