I seem to have come to a point where,when trying to relate to another person or people,I can inquire "who's relating" and there is nothing there.Really nothing. There's relating but no sense of an "I" relating.

"Who's experiencing the conversation" and again,nothing is there. To describe it would be like there's interacting,but from emptiness.Also much more consciously aware than I've ever been.

A rather interesting experience for me. It's like some phenomenal thing going on and I'm just there taking part.

It's not troubling,just a new way of experiencing I guess.
In a "twilight zone" kind of way.

Hi Lateralus,

Your experience is very good: It is pointing to the realization that there is no absolute self in an individual, while there is a relational self. This experience could also be understood as the "emptying" before a shift in consciousness. You might be interested to inquire also: Who am I? What am I?

Warmest wishes

I'll be sure to work that into the inquiry. I use it as part of Samyama also.

Thanks Blanche.
