I am the Seer
“Seer” means the one that sees / understands
e.g. If you are given something in your hand and you conclude that it is a pen, it is not your eyes
that concluded this. It is you that concluded this. The Self sees via the eyes – the eyes don’t
see themselves
Like that all the 5 senses are just the instrument that enable the Self to see something outside
Just like you see outside, you can also see ‘within’, without using the body for sensation
e.g. You can ‘see’ that you are feeling happy, getting angry...
Thus, the Self ‘sees’ or understands, sometimes with the help of the body, sometimes without
the help of body
I am the one who decides. I decide what to do, what not to do...
I may or may not use the body to do – what I think of is my decision. I do that thinking within
myself (there is no role of the body in this)

I am the Enjoyer (Experiencer)
I am the one that feels enthused or depressed. I am the one that feels angry or
delighted...
