Would you still be here?
Would you still be here, if you had no name? If you had no job? if you had no money? if you had no fear? if you had no hope? if you had no anger? if you had no sorrow? if you had no language? if you had no thoughts?
Perhaps you say no. If you do so, are you able to recognize that the no, is a belief?
Would you still be here if you had no beliefs?
Obviously. If you weren't here, who would then believe? If you believe, then believing is something you do, it is not something you are.
If you weren't here, what would we then be labeling with a name? Who would have a job? Who would be able to earn money? Who would be able to fear? Who would be able to hope? Who would be able to be angry? Who would be able to feel sorrow? Who would speak? Who would think? Who would believe?
Who is that I, that is not the name? Not the job? Not the money? Not the fear? Not the hope? Not the anger? Not the sorrow? Not the language? Not the thoughts? Not the beliefs?
Is it the human body?
When I call your name, is it the human body or is it you that reacts to it?
Can you be aware of pain in the body? Is that awareness present, whether there is pain or not?
Have you ever experienced yourself not being here? Could you ever experience yourself not being here?
What would that look like?
