We think we are a “something” — an entity that emerged in the universe on a planet called Earth.
Are we really?
What is a human being? What am I?
Am I my body, my brain, my thoughts?
Superficially it seems that we are simply some combination of all of these things and more. When you look deeply the simple question, Who am I? reveals mind-boggling complexity.
What if you are not a something that thinks and acts?
What if all of life were one unfolding process that included:
Experiences of thinking
Experiences of acting
And
Experiences of thinking that you are a something that thinks and acts?
What if you don’t exist in the way that
you have always thought you did?
