Dear Robert

 

I never intend to state that there is no particularised self or me, i

don´t understand how you have got this impression.

 

What i wrote is that there is more than only one self, particularised

into the thinking, emotional and motoric centers of self awareness,

located in the brain, the heart, and muladhara chakras who are

disconnected , sometimes at war, and sometimes at peace, they do

not work together in harmony but interfere negatively.

Yoga and sadhana is about awareness of these selfs.

There are still a few more other selfes but lets stick to the main

ones to keep it simple.

 

I think it is better in the future i stick to my own language and

give up trying to express my thoughts in english.
