Your direction of looking for a ‘Border’, along with Kevin S’s additional direction of looking for a ‘Separator, Partitioner, Filter’ process was enough to break this fetter in only a few days. Like your comment, I was wondering if it would have just fallen away naturally if I had waited for a bit longer settling-in period from the 7th Fetter’s breaking. In any case, Thank you.
The funny thing is that I think most people have already experienced no separate self, and it just wasn’t that big of a deal. If you’ve ever “lost yourself” in a book or a movie, or been “in the flow”, where it seemed like your body was on autopilot and was just doing its thing with no “you” controlling anything, then guess what. That was the experience of no separate self. Congratulations! On the flip side, make a mistake in front of an audience and you’ll quickly become very conscious of your self, i.e., self-conscious. Once you’ve seen that the sense of self comes and goes, it becomes easier and easier to see through the illusion.
@@hansenmarcseeing there is no separate self is fetter 1. You’re spot on with that shift. This video is referencing your entire identity completely collapsing. No you at all. 🙏

Hey, how exactly are you looking for a border or a filter? With your eye vision?
The subtle sense of self never fell away. And I don't know how to make it happen.
