What are you though?? Are you what is appearing or are you what is seeing and knowing the appearance?

Because when you used "for you" you created a bias. You asked a loaded question.
Pointing out what someone else sees exposes that bias and rebukes your assertion.

The question is -
Is there anything appearing for you when you are in deep sleep? For you or for anyone? Not for someone who is wide awake looking at someone in deep sleep. When you are in deep sleep is there anything appearing? Do you even know you exist?

I don't quite understand the question. To whom am I supposed to be appearing?
Are you what you see? Or are you the thing that is seeing what is seen? Are you the image or are you the one seeing the image?

So are you what is appearing or are you seeing what is appearing?

And as I have already pointed out, that is a loaded question.
I try not to do loaded questions.
So what makes you think differently about your body? You are the thing that controls your body, but you are not the body itself. Your body is only a vessel for your spirit, which is what animates the body you see.
So you are what you see? If you are what you see then you are that tree just like you are the body that you see. Your body can control that tree too, it can shake it, cut it down, carry it, shape it, build it into a house, etc., so with that philosophy you are what you see, no matter what it is.
Why do you let religion control the way you think?

I'm fairly certain I am not a pillow.
Can you be certain about what you are? Have you ever wondered?

I do not understand what you mean by a loaded question.
Does it mean that if you answer it you might have to open the box?

Loaded Question – a question that carries an assumption, and is worded in such a way so that the respondent who answers the question directly admits to accepting that assumption.
Does it mean that if you answer it you might have to open the box?
This is also a loaded question.
