That is an odd video. I totally disagree. I see myself as creating my entire self into the vessel of heart, mind, and will that i already am. My heart, mind, and will of one vessel is entirely mine and i have those three dynamic capacities. Experience is an everflowing river of dynamic changes, yet i choose everyday how these things of experience mean to me. So experience is a neverending process, i lose nothing. My vessel has, temporal, permanent, and often forever choices of heart. Even losing all my memories i will still have the vessel and i am willing to bet that my heart would end up being very much the same as i was before losing the memories.
I do not see freedom in the video's interpretation of being. Exercising myself his way i feel a total sense of loss. Like driftwood tossed about in an everchanging sea. Only the driftwood has no permanency of being.
Then i realize i cant escape the rudiments of my vessel, im still me, still have my three components, and i still have all my convictions, and everything i love never left me. The experiences are not me, i am the experiencer.
So anyway the vessel is the canvas and life is the paint, and my paintbrush is how i choose to be affected.
