Conversation with Whom?

A met my friend this morning . Asked him “ With whom do you converse?” He replied “ I converse with others.” Asked him “ What is this “I”? Where is this “I”? Have you identified the “I?”. He was in shock. He replied “ I am sorry . I do not know the answer for any of your questions. I know nothing about this “I”. I am doubtful about it’s existence.” Asked him “ Then please tell what do you mean when you say -Others.” He replied “ Others mean everyone excluding the “I”. Replied “ When you are doubtful about the existence of the “I” , where does the question of “Others “ arise ?.”He asked me “ You told me that I and others do not exist . Then with whom you converse ?” Replied “ With Silence in silence.” He started seeing stars.Left him in silence to converse with it 🧎‍♀️
