Who is this "we" you are referring to?

In other words, when I control my thoughts, what is doing the controlling?

(see George Gurdjieff's philosophy which speaks to this issue of the `mechanical vs the conscious`, but please don't run off and join a crazy cult and ruin your life).

When I say “we”, I mean each of us. You control your thoughts. You are the doing because you choose the thought to act on.
