“Transcendence”

Self is not a property;
we don’t even know where our selves come from.
We human beings are so different from one another.
We have minds we claim as ours,
but what’s the difference from my mind with your mind?
Maybe just the fact that we both grew up differently,
putting different information in our minds,
defining ourselves with knowledge we acquired
from our own unique worlds and introducing ourselves
to everyone with a name.
If we become humble enough to disown ourselves as “ours”
by not using knowledge to define ourselves,
we probably might see ourselves in others,
or maybe become someone higher or greater
that no man is ever capable of knowing.
Not until we set aside our earthly ways.
