WISDOM'S ROAR

WHEN WE THINK ABOUT WHAT WE SEE AND HEAR, WE IDENTIFY WITH THE THOUGHTS

Seeing and looking, which one do you think is you?

Usually, looking and listening, we think is ‘me’ because we pay attention. Seeing and hearing are passive (yogi’s note - sensed directly through the ear and eye doors); so, we identify less with them.

When we pay attention, we give meaning to the object; it involves thinking. When we think, we identify with our thoughts – ‘I’m thinking’.
