The incidental reality that it is you as a person, Judy, vs. anyone else, is not the point that matters here, though for those uninterested in freedom, or more precisely, more interested in protecting the figments of their imagination they call themselves, is the point here. What happened to a seeker's humility? When I was in bondage, everything I did or did not do was focused on achieving freedom for myself, vs. protecting the illusions of centuries past and present. Only when we can focus like that will we achieve our freedom. Until then we are like minnows circling around and around in a near meaniningless pursuit of the recurring karma of time and space.:-)
