“Who am I?”
If you don’t know the answer of this question then everything you do will be obviously wrong. It seems that everyone is living blindly, without knowing what is this ‘me’.
Just ask yourself, “who is reading this post?” and you will be surprised that you don’t know. Just notice people walking in the streets or in the malls, watch them consciously and you will realize that they are unconscious. They are not alert. They are lost in thoughts.
Just catch yourself how many time you are lost in thoughts and dreams. Ordinary waking state is not much different than sleep, because dreams are going on all the time.
Ask yourself, “who am I?” and the mind will stop. You will not get the answer in words but you will FEEL who you are. If you keep asking this question again and again in different situations then you will come to know a silent witness, a center within you which never get change. This silent witness is real you. Once you know your real nature than nothing can disturb you and you can never do anything wrong. Then you will never miss anyone, because in the present moment you are connected to the whole life.
“If you really want to know who I am,
you will have to be absolutely empty as I am.
Then two mirrors will be facing each other,
and only emptiness will be mirrored.”
