What is the thing call “I” in your mind?
Well it’s a thought.
It’s
a thought that we use to know things. It means there’s a certain knowledge that
we use to know entities like when we see a flower we get this idea of identify
it’s a flower. If it is yellow we get this certain knowledge that figuring
knowing it is yellow in color as a thought.
Likewise
when we see the figure of our body we think this body is “I”. Actually if we
cut this body for parts and spread them we can figure that nothing is there to
call as “I”. It’s a thought knowing that this body is “I”. If we see an
illusion of our mind we use to know from a thought this mind is “I”. Some can
identify use the thought of knowing things to know find out the soul is the
thing call “I”. This is a wrong awareness. Even we can say a shoe as “I” too
because we figure out the shoe as I.” I” is just a thought process from our
mind.
And there’s a connection with ego and “I”, it’s
using this “I” figure of thought as “I” or I am higher than other, I am lower
than others, I am equal to other, I
am not equal to other, like wise. These are also thoughts. Losing the
thought call "I" help to cure ego because there’s a connection
between this two.
It’s unfair not to talk about “MY” when I talk
about ” I”. “my” also a thought of capturing clinging to things. We restrict
things as “my” from a thought to capture things when we cling to them. If we
lose them we get depressed. Thinking everything as “not my” also a
thought. If we do like that, we won’t depress when we lose them. It’s a state of
mind. We mostly cling for desired entities and people.
"I" is It's also a combination
of quantum field. A combination of particles that made the
thought. Until the particles holds on the thought will exist. Soon as
the particles rhythm discharge the thought will be vanish.
