An analysis which is not merely a theoretical analysis, but at the same time another writing of the question of Being or meaning: deconstruction is also a manner or writing and putting forward another text. (Derrida)
This is the period in which the
conscious individuality is established and this is done
spontaneously. It is still a period forming part of creation
and is still closed to outside influences such as an adult
mentality trying to impose or transmit something directly.
The child, therefore, cannot be educated in the ordinary
sense of the word by a teacher, but education must come
through the natural bases. The natural laws of develop-
ment compel the child of this age to experiment on the
environment by the use of his hands, both in cultural
and other matters. It is the passage from nothing to
life. Only recently this has become known, before then
the whole psychic life of the child was buried under the
indifference of humanity to him. Now it has made
itself suddenly known to those who did not know of it.

I regard them to be perfect yogis who see the true equality of all living beings and respond to the joys and sorrows of others as if they were their own.
(Bhagavad Gita 6:32)
38 “What is truth?” retorted Pilate. With this he went out again to the Jews gathered there and said, “I find no basis for a charge against him.
(John 18:38)
By all means be selfish by foregoing everything but the Self/Atman.
When you love the Self/Atman and nothing else, you go beyond the selfish and the unselfish. All distinctions lose their meaning. Love of one and love of all merge together in love, pure and simple, addressed to none, denied to none. Stay in that love, go deeper and deeper into it, investigate yourself and love the investigation and you will solve not only your own problems but also the problems of humanity. You will know what to do. (Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj)

(John 10:34)
The false ‘I’ will disappear and the real ‘I’ will be realized.
(Sri Ramana Maharshi)
It is not a “tabula rasa”, which is why deconstruction is also distinct from doubt or from critique. Critique always operates in view of the decision after or by means of a judgment. The authority of judgment or of the critical evaluation is not the final authority for deconstruction. Deconstruction is also a deconstruction of critique. Which does not mean that all critique or all criticism is devalued, but that one is trying to think what the critical instances signifies in the history of authority. (Derrida)
