In the beginning, the human being always was looking for his better half, who could be his spouse, lover, friend, sister/brother…etc. That’s to complete the equation of You…and I.
The philosophy of self defines the essential qualities that make one person distinct and various from all others. There have been abundant approaches to defining these qualities. The self is the idea of a unified being which is the source of consciousness. Moreover, this self will always worry about finding the other who will be integrating it.
YOU, I am asking: Who are you?
Is the (you) absent or present? Is it looking for me as much as I am looking for them? Has it been created or not yet? Shall I wait longer till it appears on the horizon, colored with the rainbow?
You and I are the core of creation. If I love you, then most likely you love me. Then, we don’t need to fight each other. Instead of throwing stones at each other, let us collect these stones to build a bridge to connect us. It doesn’t matter, I will come to your side, or we can meet in the middle.
Knowing others the – You- is wisdom. Knowing the self is enlightenment. Mastering others requires force. Getting the self needs strength. The (I) knowledge (self-knowledge) alone is the means to the highest bliss. Nevertheless, it is a silhouette of egotism, but the absolute perfection is the consummation of Self-knowledge with YOU.
“You and I are the core of creation. If I seek you and love you, then, almost certainly, you too seek and love me. Then why fight if we are part of a greater whole? Instead of throwing stones at each other out of fear, pain, or lack of knowledge, let us gather these stones together to make a bridge. On this bridge, we can meet and become I with you and You with me- a We that unites our differences and similarities to create together.”
