Of what I am, I am both sure and unsure.
For one, I could, albeit without deep cognitive understanding, say what I am not
, and through a certain enumeration arrive at a constraint of what I
can be
. Yet at the same time the circumstance often disrupts
the chain of logical reasoning and imposes what seems to be an external definition
of what I
must be
. If the circumstance would be such as to force me
into being what I am
not, then I would no longer be
, even as my body would likely persist
. From this follows
, taking into consideration that the mind has its origins in the body
, that the circumstance has the power to
redefine
you, if only it be strong enough
. What am I, then,
if my body is easily broken, and my inclination easily shifted another way
? I am compelled then to look at that part of being
, which is free from the aforementioned affliction
. Thus I seek the origin of all
, and indeed, the body is the lowliest of all
, and it moves nothing, but things both
perishable and
passive in their nature
. The body, in its turn, is moved by the mind
, which deals in things sublime
, but yet is corrupted
by both bodily influences
and its own proneness to error
. The mind is but a slave that would yield to everything
in order to
rest itself
. What, then, governs, or shall I say compels, the movement of the mind?
This
substance we are used to call
the will. This all encompassing
concept is what
rules over this Fight
. You are neither what you
think
you are, nor what you
feel
you are, but you are an
entity, no, an
implement, the ultimate unit
, who even in its incapacity to comprehend its own will
is yet able to carry out the Fight
. Hikarin!
