Only in the continuous encounter with another person does the person become and remain a person.

To Know

It is not speech which we should want to know:
we should know the speaker.

It is not things seen which we should want to know:
we should know the seer.

It is not sounds which we should want to know:
we should know the hearer.

It is not mind which we should want to know:
we should know the thinker.

— Kaushitaki Upanishad 3:8 [via]  <link>
