No time, no doership, no experience, no reason ... it's hard to grasp these things for there is nothing to grasp.

[@dalehodges5362]

Speaking of himself in 3rd person with deep conviction is inspirational irrespective of his point.

[@ifyougrewupinbrightsgrove4840]

Speaking of ones ego, should be in the third person. It is not one’s true self, but another’s , it is of the mind.

Identifying process is self-centeredness ..Time or thought cannot transform. The other thing may transform in no time... .wow

We live in disorder 🙏🙏❤️

The continuation of self-centeredness is the continuation of the self as conditioned by all other selves (other people) - the generational evolution of the self who formulates, expresses, and ultimately defends a highly individualistic belief paradigm (or reality perspective). In other words, 8.1 billion island nations in the sea of humanity.

There is self-centredness because of the idea "I", that is, the mental representation of myself, the I-thought, the image. The image I have about that living thing called "bird" is not that real being that breaths, flies and sings. The same with the images I have about the Universe, about God, and about myself. Imagination is the formation of images. Many of them are necessary for daily life. Illusion is the belief that the image is the being or the thing it represents. This belief brings about all the problems of division, separation, violence, becoming, and all the rest of it. Once the images are not the beings and things they represent, what is all the phenomena? Who am I?

Oh how we remain the same, and in fact, worse

[@willshaughnessy8515]

Patriotism, nationalism, religious ideologies, are pure manifestations of humans trying to make sense of existence and identity, but are forgetting the star stuff from.which all originates

[@buddhikap9915]

Elimination of time factor is equal to negating the "me" within. After 50,000 years of walking on two legs, we are still primitive in thought, though we have technologically advanced outwardly. Why the two different state of mind does not meet each other ????

[@ifyougrewupinbrightsgrove4840]

but, over time, with practice, one may see the self centeredness (false mind constructed ego) on the horizon and lower your gaze to more timely matters in the present. Action with no thought, of self. Thus avoiding karmic interactions, which are downfalls of the ego. Continually stepping back from one’s self, to the one true eternal consciousness.
