Much appreciated. The energy feel of a false, fixed, independent, inherent notion of self does mostly occur as a contractive feel in the head for most. Sometimes, however it can move as a contractive feeling within the body or surrounding the body(body identification). It has to be a whole neutral watch in finding that self, otherwise you will be making another self loosening a self.

He said the answer is "not self" Delusion is thinking there is a self.

I am not Buddhist but question on these precepts. Inam a farmer and I intentionally kill.a field of corn for food. What does this mean for my karma or whatever? Thanks

+Gary Casey Gary - Are you saying you are worried about "killing the Corn"? Plants are not sentient creatures and thus there is no fault. Even tilling the fields will harm creatures but as long as your intention is to farm corn for people to eat and not to till the field to kill the bugs then there is no harm. However putting pesticides on the corn to kill the bugs that are on them at that moment may not be so good. Does this help?
