Thanks for the seeking spirit of this musing, Simeon. It has rather merry resonance for me here at age 81, grateful to be at ease with little remaining 'identity' stuff in the usual sense. Reminds me of that classic Zen tale of Bodhidharma when Emperor Wu challenged him to identify himself. Lovely and affirming to see Jung's affinity with 'emptiness' in the snippets you share.

Thank you for commenting, Catharine; and I hadn't heard of that Bodhidharma tale... Will look it up now :)
