Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. – Lao Tzu
I, me, mine…. Use these as parts of speech. Don’t weigh them down with the EGO.
I, Me — Who are you ? Our name has been given to us after we were born into this wor
ld merely for referring convenience.. but is not our true identity. We have been existing much more before that. The human form we are in is just a part of the evolution like the dinosaurs were long before now. Just as they no longer exist, our civilization may too be lost one day. We exist as a whole, a part of this vast universe and as evolution comes along, anything can happen! Don’t bother erecting empires here… one natural disaster and all gone! What is a human body..? One hard blow and gone! What’s all the ego about..? Human — nothing but a refined version of the monkeys that evolution created. It’s just that this time, nature did a great job with the brain of this species. And, we started to consider ourselves superior over all other species. The mighty Lion doesn’t boast of its power, the posh Peacock doesn’t take pride in its beauty. Then, why man… ?
Mine — You didn’t bring anything, and won’t be able to take back one single worldly thing! Then, what’s yours? The only thing that’ll really remain with you is your soul. So, wouldn’t it be advisable to work on that truth instead… ?
