And now

 

Turn off the radio.
Notice that you exist.

 

How do you misidentify?

Where do you place your identity?
Where it brings you suffering?

 

As a man or woman?
As a wife or husband?
As a parent or child?

As a worker or professional?
As a fan of a sports team?

As an owner of something, like this car?

 

Look at any of these that have meaning for you, And see

 

There is something in you who knows this identity.
Who you are must be closer to that which knows
than any of the known.

 

You know this identity,

So your real identity must be something deeper, Closer to the knower.
