the truth and what is right.

 

I (a verb) am compassionate and already know

the cause and effect of both suffering

* I is the pronoun most often used to refer to one’s self. Unfortunately, the “I” does not stand for intelligence, but rather identity. Identity is the nominalization (making a verb into a noun) of the active verb identifying. Identity is actually the unconscious process of identifying or attaching an internal sense of self with an external person, context, or culture. Identity is a learned process, and thus changeable. Change, on an identity level, changes what you do, think, feel, and the foundation of who you think you are. Identity is a verb. I (a verb).
