Guest guest Posted March 19, 1999 Report Share Posted March 19, 1999 Marcia Paul <jacpa Marcia: This is where the juncture is between becoming a man of feeling or a man of power. The man of power makes product out of process forging an identity out of experience. The man of feeling wakes totally up realizing that all that was nothing. The last thing to be sacrificed is that exact thing which got me where I am. The self which I remember is the self sacrificed. Harsha: Marcia, this (especially the last three lines) is very beautiful and moving. "The self which I remember is the self sacrificed." Memory is one of the critical components of an individual identity as well. It occurs to me that "self- remembrance" in the deepest sense is the last to go and merge in the Absolute, as it is the nucleus, the product of awareness and matter and the outcome of innumerable relationships with living beings.
