Are you your thoughts, or are you thought?
mind/body organism, alive on this spinning rock, which identifies itself based on it's own selected set of memories, again HIGHLY edited, and again ALL based on measurement.
ask yourself this, how many memories do you remember from Oct 1995? Can you remember what you where doing at 4:21pm on Oct 4th 1995? If not, what do you remember from that day? What do you remember from that Month? How about that Year?
To see for firsthand just how small, selective, and restrictive the little string of memories is that we put together in an order and call "I" can be mind blowing.
Many people wont even allow themselves to go there, for fear that this "me" story they have been clinging to with such attachment may not actually be real upon closer examination.
So in understanding the reality that what most people call "I" doesn't really exist we are left with a fundamental question... who is the "I" that sets 'goals' ?
The only answer I have been able to come up with is this. . . the same being which is created by measurement and identifies itself as thought sets up an artificial series of objectives based on it's own "me" story by which it will seek to further measure, and therefore CREATE, it-self.
What an endless hamster wheel that is.
