That's because it is said that the cat is dead and alive at the same time, but direct experience tells us there's no cat. In the same way you say that suffering only exists in thought and can't be pointed to in direct experience. However Phil, there's still the undeniable discord felt above anything else in direct experience. Take away the word "suffering" and just know that I am referring to the direct experience of the suffering (discord in body).

Phil Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 @fopylo I’m not suggesting any denial. I’m also not suggesting suffering is in the body. I’m saying it’s how (some) thoughts feel. Quote Mention YouTube Website Sessions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
