Root of confusion

Confusion arose with the arising of self consciousness. In the absence of self-consciousness, there is nothing there that is separate from the life process to wonder about its own existence. Only with the arising of self-consciousness (which is again a product of the bodily process for life regulation) arises a sense of a separate self, which then start to wonder about its own existence.

Without the self-consciousness, there is nothing other than the life process to even wonder about anything. Even, with the self-consciousness, there is nothing other than the life process, since the self-consciousness arises from the life process itself, which creates a sense of subjectivity/self that seems to be separate from the surrounding.

So, since there is only the life process and no actual separate self or entity, there is no you and no God and nothing else other than the life process.
