“Who am I?
The answer to life’s most defining question
“Who am I?”
How many times have you asked yourself this question?
How many times have you questioned why you’re supposed to be on this earth?
How many times have you questioned your very existence?
For me, the answer is countless times.
And the question itself makes me ask more questions: can I ever know who I am? Why do I need to know who I am? Will any answer ever satisfy me?
When these questions overwhelm me, I find myself inspired by this quote by the Indian sage, Ramana Maharshi:
“The question, ‘who am I?’ is not meant to get an answer, the question ‘who am I?’ is meant to dissolve the questioner.”
Whoa. Dissolve the questioner. What does that even mean?
How can dissolving my identity help me figure out who I am?
Let’s try and find out.
