As long as any sensation is given a continuity, that continuity takes root and becomes the I. That I divides itself from thought, and there is contradiction. This inquiry demands a great deal of attention so that at any moment the I doesn’t come into being. If you say, ‘I must get rid of desire,’ the I takes dominance, makes conflict and contradiction, and therefore sustains the division.
