I often refer to myself as we and us. This feels very natural to me. How about you?

Of course I have so many different personalities that it would be erraneous to call me an INDIVIDUAL?/

An entity is something that has a distinct existence (though not necessarily a physical one) apart from other things. There are certainly several different things that run around inside my head that are almost completely independent of each other. In this sense, I can say with a pretty good level of confidence that my mind is made up of many entities.
Which leaves only the question of what 'I' am. I know that I am more than my mind, and believe that I am more than my mind and body. When I try to get a good grip on 'me-ness', I usually conclude that I am pretty interwoven into the nature of most things around me. In this sense, I'm not sure that I can say with much confidence that -I- am an entity.

Dear Cordova: First, I want to say to you - Thank You for joining into the Religion/Spirituality Category. They need you, desperately ! Your quiet, absolute truths are a breath of freshness, and life giving. I'm an anointed spiritual teacher and I dance and rejoice in your light.
To answer the question at hand: We should all learn to be conscious of our two selves: The One-ness the Creator created that is Eternal and part of Him, yet not Him. God thinks love, but in the abstract, generalized form of it. He sees His Child, His own Likeness, the Apple of His "Eye" as One ; as He intended it to be. No individual characteristics. Same-ness. Equality in that same-ness. Peace in same-ness. He adores His One son. Mind is intimacy, to God. The Relationship of Him to us and us to each other is mind to mind; thought to thought. We are always WE.
The Separation occurred. In Eternity. One-ness asked for the experience of being known by God as individuals. It was not the highest nor best thought inside of God's thought pool. He disagreed with the concept - for it could not perpetuate the Perfection of His structured Kingdom. It could present many problems. But the sons of God, unlimited in their thoughts and unopposed forever, within the Kingdom, desired the experience of individuality and "self" and therefore, self-interest. We imaged this individuality and it's adventures. For the present moment of Eternity, we accept this human adventure and are "us."
We should know of both our Self, and this present self. This Journey, through minds, of Time and Space will finally "awaken" us and in our full awareness of our Ultimate Reality we will be "Returned" to our One-ness within the only Relationship we were ever created for.
Best regards, Lana

maybe you refer to urself as we because you consist of a mind body and soul/spirit with all three in you then you become one and by recognizance of such in your enlightened state you realize what you consist of and refer to yourself as we or us...am i right?

Nope, we, I mean I, don't refer to myself as we and us... (Unless "me, myself and I" counts. But I normally use that phrase to emphasize how alone I am indeed!)

Not at all, unless you're a CEO and you're speaking in behalf of your company :D
