We're Not For We Think

We sure are what we're, for, we think, Mind said, parroting a thought pink. But a voice said, body, Mind, nor talent man be; A lady wearing mink as is no mink. Thoughts make man no more than aware, Nor body nor yet mind death spares; We're we because we are conscious, The Self is what makes us, The rest are only parts and spares. We are not for, we think, Much as books are not just ink. _____________________________________________________ And yet, when a Greek philosopher said, ‘we are for we think', he was not wrong. Mind plays multiple roles mind is manas (mind) , mind is aham (ego) , mind is buddhi (intellect) , mind is chitta (awareness) , and mind could also be the soul or spirit, depending on the role it plays. ______________________________________________________ Reflections | 01.02.2017 |
