Extending identity to all perceptions

Its too easy to fall in love with pleasant perceptions. In fact it is almost automatic and effortless. The challenging part is to love everything that arises even the most grotesque of forms and feelings. After all everything we perceive is who we are. We are inseparable from all kinds of perception or more like the space in which perception is happening. If we hold on to a small set of perceptions, call it ‘Me’ and treat everything else as external and push it away, its ignorance of this fact. There is a interconnected system referred to as the physical body that moves with you but you are FAR larger than that. You are the perceiver behind the machine and the machine itself is highly interconnected to its environment.
