Thinking is the enemy of Being. I think therefore I am not.

Negative childhood events (trauma) cause us to separate out from our True Self and create a separate self, that a 2 year old thinks will be more pleasing to our parents. Our egocentric self develops out of separation and inferiority. Separation from Self is the source of all suffering.
I am not my self-made egoic mind. My True Self is consciousness itself.
