Being Is What We Are, the Separate Self Is What We Do

If being is what we are, and the separate self is what we do, then what activity of the finite mind does not constitute the separate self? Rupert says: ‘I sometimes use the phrases “the finite mind” and “the separate self” synonymously – but they’re not exactly the same. The finite mind is the activity of thinking and perceiving, and the separate self is a particular activity, namely, the belief and feeling that I, this finite mind, am a discrete, limited entity. ‘You can have a finite mind without believing or feeling that you are a temporary, finite separate self. Ramana Maharshi, the Buddha and Lao Tzu all retained the capacity to think and perceive, but they had no sense of themselves as a separate self. So, their finite mind didn’t disappear – their sense of separation disappeared.’ *This video is from one of Rupert’s in-person retreats at Mercy Center, 18–25 October 2024.
