A Question

The fundamental question you continually ask yourself cannot properly be directed to yourself at all.

You keep asking what it is you are. This implies that the answer is not only one you know, but is also one that is up to you to supply.

Yet you cannot perceive yourself correctly. You have no image to be perceived.

The word "image" is always perception-related, and not a part of knowledge.

Images are symbolic and stand for something else.

The idea of "changing your image" recognizes the power of perception, but also implies that there is nothing stable to know.
