Who Am I ?

Have you looked at yourself in the mirror and asked Who am I? Why am I here? What is my purpose in life? What is life all about? Or,

Did you have an empty feeling after you bought the latest gadget, the car of your choice or married your girl- friend? If these questions have never bothered you, skip this page, your time has not come to evolve, you’ll come -back soon. If your answer is Yes read-on.

Of what practical use is it for you to have the answer to these questions?

On finally knowing who you are, you become a content, happy, deliberate creator of your life. You understand yourself, your life, and humanity as a whole. You feel safe in the universe. You feel at home, having found your spot and purpose. You have peace and power, joy and love for yourself and life in general. Your problems take on a new dimension as you master them. Life becomes pleasant, abundant, peaceful yet lively, and very, very enjoyable! And much, much more.
And once you know who you are, you know what the rest of life is - and beyond. No one can tell you Who You Really Are. Words can only point you in a direction. Only you can take the final step of knowing, experiencing, being, Who You Really Are. Only you. but then again, you were born to do so, you have the inherent ability to do so.
In fact, it is the easiest thing to do, although it appears to be the hardest. Why is it the easiest? Because it takes no time and no effort to be Who You Are
You already are who you are. It only takes time and effort to be who you are not.
It has been said that illumination, enlightenment, is simply answering and experiencing the answer to the question "Who Am I?" It has also been said that you already are enlightened, and all that is missing is your experience (knowing, being) of it. Experience is often a matter of perspective (fragmented vision), and ultimately a matter of vision (wholesome perspective that takes in all possible perspectives).
Do you have any idea how your mind came up with the thoughts that it now has? Do you not know that your world has manipulated your mind to think as you do? Wouldn't it be better for you to manipulate your mind than for the world to? Would you not be better off to think the thoughts you want to think, than those of others? Are you not better armed with creative thoughts than with reactive thoughts?
From Conversations With God Book 1 by Neale Donald Walsch
What is your name? Who gave you your name? What is your identity and role? Who gave you that? Where did you get the contents of your mind from? How did you come to be the person and personality that you are? Do you really know you or do you only know what you have been conditioned and told to believe is you?
So Who am I really?
The Bible says “You’ll know the truth and the TRUTH will set you free.” So what is the truth? The truth is :

Since you are like no other being ever created since the
beginning of time, you are incomparable.

Brenda Ueland
We will discover the nature of our particular genius when we
stop trying to conform to our own or to other people’s models,
learn to be ourselves, and allow our natural channel to open.

Shakti Gawain
There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening, that
is translated only through you and into action, and because
there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique.
And if you block it, it will never exist through any other
medium and will be lost
.
Martha Graham



He who knows others is wise; he who knows himself is
enlightened.

Lao-Tzu

SO what is SPIRITUALITY: It is the unfolding and fulfillment of the human potential. Within you there is an impulse to be the best you can be but even more than that –down you suspect you have the potential to be truly great. Spirituality is the self-actualization of your potential. It is a sense of wholeness, fulfillment being in the zone.

When you have conquered your fears and anxiety of the future and got rid of the guilt and anger of the past. When you feel abundant, you feel connected to everything and have stopped judging people and situations. You are not struggling anymore and things come naturally to you. You are almost drunk with LIFE and grateful for everything. You sing your song and dance to the divine tune. You are PRESENT and alive to all the possibilities that life has to offer.
