The mind is discontinuous.
Again and again it blanks out,
like in sleep or swoon or distraction.
There must be something continuous to register discontinuity.
Memory is always partial,
unreliable and evanescent.
It does not explain the strong sense of identity pervading consciousness,
the sense "I am".
Find out what is at the root of it.
Excerpts from Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj's I AM THAT
