I've read what other's have had to say about this statement, however non of them really asked what I've been thinking.
I believe this statement is incorrect, or perhaps incomplete.
The mere act of thinking does not make the concept of "I" true. Let me explain, just because I can close my eyes right now and think that I am an Astrounaut does not make me one. When we are in the state of 'doing' is when we really become the "I" in the statement mentioned earlier. Therefore, can it be said that this statement is incorrect because the mere state of thinking, we are not 'doing'... and therefore not 'being'. It is when we take action and physically manipulate our bodies into doing what we have thought that we really experience the essence of being alive and therefore living the "I" phenomena.
So, my question is, could the statement be more accurate if it went something like this...
"I think and when I DO what I think therefore I am".
