Dialogue between Gary Weber and Rich Doyle on the fear of emptiness, stillness and no-thoughts. Nondual emptiness and pure awareness is not a place of existential terror, but one of great stillness and unimaginable, increasing sweetness, love, and caring. Dark Night of the Soul as a religiously-generated phenomena. Giving the ego/I a new job. Confusion of believing processes generate nondual stillness when in fact it is already there, it only needs to be uncovered. Dopamine-reinforcement for stillness.
A complete transcription of this dialogue is available in "Into the Stillness: Dialogues on Awakening Beyond Thought" available on amazon.com and non-dualitypress.org in hardcopy and kindle versions.
