Just as it is known That an image of one's face is seen Depending on a mirror But does not really exist as a face, So the conception of "I" exists Dependent on mind and body, But like the image of a face The "I" does not at all exist as its own reality. Anonymous
About This Quote

The relationship between the self and the body that houses it is not clear, but it is certain that there is no real "I." The idea of an individual subject existing independent of the body is a mistaken one. The idea of "I" existing as a separate entity is an illusion.
