Just like that, be an awakened person

Don't be hypnotized by who you think you are, let alone who others think you are.

If others think you are who you are and what you are, rejoice, rejoice for him, feel his joy, and rejoice with him; If others think you are who you are and what you are, feel sorry for them, understand them, care for them and love them.

About who you really are? You transcend all identities. Identifying with any identity is not only a kind of loss, but also a narrowing and narrowing of your nature.

Don't be bothered by who you think you are, but don't deny who others think you are. Clear awareness, you are beyond all your "stories" – you are beyond all of your identities that you think you are.

Experience the identity without identity, experience the identity that transcends all identities. This body has no identity, this heart transcends all identities. Realize the truth of who you are and what you are.

You may ask, isn't it bad to identify with someone? For example, identifying with the identity of the king, the identity of the rich man, the identity of the good man, etc. There is nothing wrong with identifying with someone, but all identities will eventually bring limitations and distress - when others do not identify with you, or when your identity is threatened.

The most important thing is that identifying with any identity is not the truth, it is falling into a dream. Whatever identity you identify with is falling into your dreams about something, without exception.

Often, people identify so deeply with their identity—as a son, as a father, as a husband, as a practitioner, as a doctor, as a writer, as a social activist, as a good person, etc.—that they take those identities as part of themselves, and when those identities are compromised or damaged, it's like hurting their own skin, or a turtle being shelled alive.

All identities are fictional, and some identities you feel real because you identify too deeply with ignorance. Just like a piece of jade buried in the sand, over time, the confused jade will think that the sand stuck to it is part of it. When someone removes the sand, it feels like scratching its skin or peeling the shell of a live turtle. Our identity is like this when it is damaged or threatened.

Everything starts from ignorance. At first the mind fell into the dream it created without knowing it, and then, it thought about it and nurtured itself, so that those that were completely false, in its feelings, became completely real. This is how the mind is lost in the most real illusion.

Who are you? Don't be fooled by any trace of the story it creates. You are not who you think you are, and you are not what others think you are. You transcend all human identities and stories, you are infinite, you transcend, you are indefinable.

Don't be hypnotized by what you think is about you, let alone what society and others think about you.

Not being hypnotized by any personal, human or non-human story is awakening. Be such an awakener.
