A body and a social identity

Zen explains that we all have a body and a social identity. But we don't have a core, in other words, the ego, when attachment, aversion, and apathy rules our life. Notice the very moment we grasp at something (or aversion, apathethic) and get off the wheel. The traditions are cultural variations all recognize that way of untying the knot. Enjoy the experience of momenteness. Status is the tough ones to see through.
