The Way of Recognition, Not Renunciation

Clarification on Separate Self and Individual Mind

A man asks for clarification between the separate self and individual mind. Rupert replies that individual mind is your capacity to think, feel, perceive and understand. The separate self is thinking you are this little bundle of activities, thoughts, and perceptions, rather than 'I am' the universal consciousness, which gives rise to suffering when identified with any part or fragment.
