It seems pretty logical and obvious to me now that the SELF does not exist. Our ego/self is just an illusion that was necessary for our evolution at one point, but now must be realised as the illusion it is, and how it is the cause of a lot of our suffering.
This seems to go hand in hand with the truth of determinism and no free will.
I'm just looking for advice from people who are enlightened or are also on the path of enlightenment for advice.
I know it's not just about reading loads of books, and it comes from many realisations when you're just observing yourself.
Does anyone have any good meditations to try?
I've been trying out mindfulness myself.
