And I think it is applicable to everything including consciousness as well. Why should consciousness remain unchanged while everything else that even influence the existence of the consciousness are changing. (I do not think that consciousness is an independent thing which is devoid of any inputs from other sources including our body and it senses)Dattatraya wrote: ↑November 17th, 2022, 6:44 am After reading all the posts ( as of now) it's my observation and conclusion, that the original question and the answers opinions/comments/discussion of the participants, are related/concerned (only ) about ' change in the body '.Interesting points and questions!
Why we should not go and think beyond ' body ' ?! ( one member has rightly said: the body is not more than ' simply a vessel for one's life force ' )
The reader/anybody will be in a better position to think about and comment or give opinion, about the original question;
if ' I ' , ' Me '. ' you '. are defined completely .
And what is ' one's life force ' ?
Perhaps, the words "I", "me", and "you"—at least in the sense of what the book refers to as the real you and the real me and the real us—all refer to that which never changes.
That would help explain why few if any would talk about it changing: For then it is something that by definition does not and cannot change.
Then, possibly, we could define the bodily and physical as that which is under constant flux, meaning that which constantly changing.
