People frequently reinforce the illusory (false) ego (i.e., supposed psychological center) by claiming possession. A person might say, “My ear feels itchy;” however, one is that ear, not something separate that “has” it. A person might say, “My eyes are tearing;” however, those eyes are partly what one is, and there is no separate internal center that “has” them. (The internal “central controller” is a fabrication of thought/thinking.) One might say, for instance, “My wedding ring needs cleaning;” however, the visual perception of that wedding ring constitutes consciousness (and, psychologically, the perceiver is the perceived). There is no actual psychological center that owns the ring. One might, for example, say, “My pain is continuing;” however, that pain is partly what one is, and we need not always habitually and robotically run away from pain. One might say, “My dog needs a bath;” however, we are all co-companions in this universe; one organism can never truly own another. Our language affects our perceptions, and a lot of it is designed to reinforce this narcissistic behavior.

Additionally, one might say, “I am going to do my 30-minute meditation soon.” However, real meditation is dynamic and organic, not something that can be prearranged; it is not something one can claim as being his or hers, and besides, practiced meditation is likely a form of foolish self-hypnosis that is robotic/mechanical. One might say, “I have a vivid memory of Ted’s graduation;” however, one actually is that memory, not something that “has” it.

Needless to say, this can go on and on ad infinitum.
I can say, “I hope you like my blog.” (Just kidding… mostly!) 😉
