Error

   What is error? It is the wrong judgment that arise from wrong assumption or just carelessness. Wrong assumption is itself a careless action. Error can be corrected by replacing what is wrong with what is right. If we have added wrongly, we just delete the incorrect sum total and replace it with the correct total.  If the error come from the calculator, we replace the calculator.
   Most of the major error we undergo, got to do with wrong assumptions such as:
   1]The earth is Flat
   2]The sun rises and falls[An assumption of the sun orbiting round the earth]
The error when spotted is then put right and we say now our earth is a sphere and the earth orbit round the sun, but at the same time rotate on its own axis to create the Illusion of the sun moving.

   Now consider the following assumption and see if there is inherent error.
   a] I am a person[of certain gender, race ,age, personality]
   b] I am the thinker[creator of all my thoughts]

   As an illustration, let say we have various jars for salt, sugar, coffee and milk and the labels for salt and sugar got on the wrong jar.[that is the jar containing sugar have salt as the label and vice versa]
      With this error, we can end up having salty coffee. However, once the error is detected, we just placed the label on the correct jar. We know the label was in error as we know sugar does not taste salty[even if it looks and feels the same]. More valuable we have the knowledge that the taste of sugar to be of a certain kind of sweetness.

   Now is the Label 'I' assumed correctly. If not, then Who AM I???
Lets us do a simple Reality check. The body cannot be the 'I' as it is changing every moment and from an infant, it will change to a child and finally an adult. 'I' cannot be the body or we will end up with many 'I' one for each moment in time.
   Now let us see if 'I' is the thinker. If one is the creator of thought one have the sovereignty to manufacture or not manufacture thoughts. In which case, one will be able to stop thoughts arising whenever we want and for as long as we want. Just try stopping the thinking process for one single minute. The error is exposed. The 'I' cannot also be a thought which comes an go and we will end up with many different 'I'
What is 'I' then, now that we know it cannot be a WHO.
We now ask What am I?

   As the scripture suggest, why not we Try if 'I' can be a name for Awareness. The error is recognised, but it can only be corrected with an assumption that is also fact[Truth]
