WHO AM ‘I’? - inquiry is inadequate and useless to unfold the mystery of the ‘I’. +

By inquiring ‘WHO AM ‘I’? or by saying ‘I AM THAT, ’ without knowing ‘what is this ‘I, ’ one will not realize the truth, which is hidden by the illusory form, time, and space.

The ‘I’ exists only when form, time, and space are present. When the Self is not the ‘I’ but the ‘Self is ‘I –less Soul, then whatever is based on the ‘I’ is bound to be an illusion.

Thus, the ‘I-less Soul is permanent and eternal, because the Soul is ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

The Self is not you. You are not eternal because you are bound by the experience of birth, life, death, and the world.

The Soul, the Self, is eternal. The Soul is birthless and deathless because it is ever formless, timeless, and spaceless.

It is foolish to say I AM THIS or I AM THAT because the ‘Self ‘is not the ‘I’. The ‘Self is the Soul, which witnesses the ‘I’.

The Soul is the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness.  If the Soul is the Self, then whatever is based on ‘I’ is bound to be a falsehood. 

The ‘I’ is not limited to the physical body because the ‘I’ is the whole world in which you exist. Without the ‘I’, the world in which you exist ceases to exist. 

WHO AM ‘I’? -  inquiry is inadequate and useless to unfold the mystery of the ‘I’.

It is necessary to know what this ‘I’ is in actuality.

What is this ‘I’?

The ‘I’ is ignorance.

The ‘I’ is duality.

 ‘I’ is an illusion.

The ‘I’ is the mind.

The ‘I’ is the universe.

The ‘I’ is the waking.

The ‘I’ is the dream.

The ‘I’ is form, time, and space together. 

The ‘I’ is the experience of birth, life, death, and the world.

Through deeper self-search, the seeker realizes the Self is not the ‘I’ but the Soul.  Thus, all the ‘I’ based teaching has no value for the seeker who has crossed the boundaries of the ‘I’. :~Santthosh Kumaar
