Guest guest Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 What is "I - I?" I am writing to ask if you can explain something to me that has been puzzling me-probably is very simple.... Here it is: The mundane self is referred to as the "I-thought". Okay, but why, or what is the significance of the Self being referred to as a double-I, like this: "I - I"? Hoping you can illuminate that for me. - Sussex, England The Pure Self is the constant "I-Awarness". It underlies our waking, dreaming and deep sleep states. It is our inherent natural state which is obstructed by thoughts, the primary being the individual "I" thought, the ego. When the "I-Awareness" is constant it has been described as "I - I". It could be written "I - I - I - I..." infinitely. Thus the limitations of language to express the inexpressible. - Editor THE MAHARSHI September/October 2000Vol. 10 - No. 5 Produced & Edited byDennis HartelDr. Anil K.
