This episode reviews a section of the second chapter of A New Earth titled, The Illusory Self. When children reach a certain level of consciousness they begin to identify with things that they start to consider as part of their identity... name, boy or girl, good or bad , silly , sad... you get the picture. Our lives are filled with temporary manifestations and the result of this condition is constant change. Subsequently children and adults, in an attempt to control life try to find things to identify with, which gives them a stronger sense of self. Trying to control change causes suffering. We need see clearly how these conditions develop, be aware, and the awareness of them... which is the solution to them... so we can grow beyond them.
