On Forms, Shyam Space, or Tao and the Soul

In Shyam Space, or in the Tao, or Emptiness, or Oneness, we are, we just are. I am that being, I am the life, I am the eternal. I am not white nor black, born or dead, sweet or sour, sick or healthy, boy or girl, big or small, gold or black, good or bad. I am not the body, I am not the mind, I am not the ego, yet I permeate it all. In order to identify with what I am, then I can say I am SELF. The I is the universal I. Because nothing else exists besides that. And it is pure, free, forever. Birth and Death of body or forms exists only like waves in the ocean. They are formed by the Tao, with the ocean rising and they go back to the ocean. They were never waves, they were always the Ocean.
Forms of human beings have mind. The mind has allowed us to take care of the form and to uniquely inquire about the SELF but it is not the SELF. Yet the SELF permeates the mind (and the intelect and the ego). So what we call EGO is the part of us that has developed not very long after we came out of the mothers womb and that knew that it was one but it looked at the oneness from the perspective of the body using the mind, or you could say the brain, and the brain of others, in order to develop a large amount of knowledge about who it is, yet confusing its identity to what it saw outside of itself as opposed to inside, to the Divine truth of its being.
The fact is that, as human being, we are not taught from our birth that, well, we are just the SELF trying to know itself. We are taught that we are people, we have names that define who I am. I am Annissa, a girl, born here, and who is going to school to learn this and who has fail this and has succeeded in that and who has boyfriends, and sometime no boyfriends, and friends,who is a teacher, who has this kind of health issue, who believes in this kind of ideas about the spritual awareness. The ego also believes what the mind says how everything changes, and that we will be born and die and we will be sick and we will learn lessons, and we must hang in there, ect..Well the relative truth is that it is true from the perspective of the mind and the body. But Annissa is not the truth of my BEING. The SELF is Annissa and Annissa is permeated by the SELF. In other word, I, is really the SELF. I am Annissa is relatively correct. I am THAT, I am SELF just is. I am the isness or the Beingness. And this I is expressing when I know I am not expressing from my mind.

It is the nature of the mind to question everything and to change everything, and to make everything perfect since to its perception, nothing is ever perfect. It is the nature of our brains (limbic, primal and necortex) to gear us into different state of evolution and that is it. The mind is really about survival, making friends and making knowledge. And so all this stuff I know about me from that perspective is only mind stuff to make me a surviving human being. And the mind is a great tool for the next evolution!
The next evolution that I embodies is REMEMBER who I really am, who is the "I" that speaks, that use to speak when I was a child. Cause when I was a child I remembered and then I forgot. So I have to use my mind to REMEMBER but I remember that I am not my mind nor my ego but I am the ego in the perspective of the knower, the soul. And my quest from long time ago has brought me to the most beautiful teachers in our time.
Every Master Teacher will say that one needs a teacher, a guru, a divine realized being to Remember and guide our own Divine being so we become that. In that perspective, my teachers like Oceana, Master Sha, Swami Shyam and many more have brought KNOWLEDGE and PRACTICE to transcend the human mind and REMEMBER who we really are so we, as humans, can live in the truth of PEACE and LOVE and HARMONY and HAPPINESS.
