Book of You

This book is all about you. But it's only about you; it's not actually you. That seems obvious, how can some words on a piece of paper actually be you? Nevertheless, this is what happens naturally in your mind all of the time. You put some words, as thoughts, together. I was born in London, I am 30 years of age, I am a doctor etc. You take those words and start to identify with them. You form a walled-off separate ball of thought patterns, which we call the ego, inside of your mind. Ok, the words are not written in a physical book, like this one, but they are written as physical thoughts in your brain as memory. So, you do indeed have a book of yourself inside of you written in words and images just like a normal book, it's just that we don't realise they are there and we see that internal book as actually being us. So, this physical book, that you are reading, is not the actual book that you should be reading, that is inside of you. This book is like the index or contents of your internal book. It's just a pointer or signpost of where you find the various pages internally. Like a map of your internal mind.
