'One master with whom I studied used to laugh at how easily and commonly we would grasp at new identities. As for himself, he would say, " I am none of that. I am not this body, so I was never born and will never die. I am nothing and I am everything. Your identities make all your problems. Discover what is beyond them, the delight of the timeless, the deathless." '


Does this mean that beyond the boundaries imposed by human nature and within the society in which we survive, Can we ever be free? Timeless. Deathless. Do our identities make all our problems? Identities are given labels, therefore labels identify us in our world, like an IP address on the internet. What would we be without an identity? A shell.
