How did you practice?...Why is your memory affected? How did you practice? <br /><br />Realizing no I is not from 'stop doing and achieving'. It is through a contemplation.<br /><br />But if you are frustrated you need to balance it with shamatha and relaxation and letting go. <br /><br />Self enquiry should be a joyful inquiry into the Source, not a frustrated inquiry.

My memory of the past (glimpses of buddhawork) stopped functioning like 95%, because of the allowing all to be as it is that I learned 5 years ago from adya. I also heard a zen master in spain say that when you stop doing and achieving, you will realize the NO I. I see buddhawork and then I don't, which causes a deep frustration of the seeker for nirvana, which I assume has nothing to do with me. If I believe in 1 opinion or glimpse of seeing buddhaland, I screw it up. I pivot back. It is like that. One belief in I, pivot back. One non belief in I, or self or doer or thinker, I can pivot back to buddhawork. But again, my memory is smooshed due to all the glimpses int he last year.
