There are an awful lot of assumptions and beliefs and concepts that we live with and by that seemingly creates this idea of a personal self, a personal me.  Prior to word, what am I?   Does the personal self remain without word?  What remains?  There is still being, life, experience.  A word is a symbol and innately we know that we are not a word. The mind takes the label to be the thing.  The arising of thoughts is purely happening all by itself with no you that is a thinker or a doer of thoughts.  If you were you could stop it. 

Thoughts operate dualistically.  Right wrong good bad this that me you and all the increments in between.  This seeming personal me that we take ourselves to be is just happening.  And then there is the belief that I am the thinker.  Just stop it and all your problems would be over.  What happens when we discover we cant just stop them?  Perhaps you are not the thinker, perhaps you are not the doer. We slowly start to witness what is actually happening as opposed to what we think is happening.
