Is my mind me? (Am I my mind?) Perhaps this is a more likely candidate? No, my mind is my mind, not me. I am not a thought or an idea, there is a lot more to me than that! I can sit down, for a start. And I can type on this keyboard; something my formless awareness cannot do. If someone insults me, I don’t think they are insulting my thoughts but ME. And today my body has a fever and I feel ill, even though my mind doesn’t have a temperature. Also, saying “My mind” has a different connotation than saying “Me”. They don’t denote the same things.
