Memory...

In the great mirror of consciousness images arise and
disappear, and only memory is material--destructible,
perishable, transient. On such flimsy foundations we
build a sense of personal existence--vague, intermittent,
dreamlike. This vague persuasion: "I am so and so"
obscures the changeless state of pure awareness and
makes us believe that we are born to suffer and to die.
