2. The Question That Opens The Mind.

If you ask yourselves 'who am i?' you ask yourself  a question that can not  be answered.

We can say things about what or who we 'think' we are but if we really look into the question we soon find that it is easier to say what we 'are not' than what 'we are'.

And yet we all know that we exist, that feeling is always present with us.  In fact it is the only 'true' feeling that we have.  Without a sense of  'i' we would merely be corpses.   Most of the time we identify completely with our sense of 'i' never questioning 'what' it is.  We simply take it for granted that  we 'are'.

In fact the question 'who am i?' is very powerful, it can open the mind.

It is like a portal.  It creates a moment in which what we call 'mind' can become still.  Try it and see for yourself.  Ask yourself, 'who am i?'.  If you can do this in the right way you may see  what i mean.


This experiment takes a conscious movement for which the question, 'who am i?' can act as a springboard.

In this blog, we are not about to engage in gymnastics of the mind.  We are not trying to find logical answers or to involve ourselves in intellectual arguments about what or who we are. Such things are the province of 'mind' only.  Who we really are is beyond mind. We will simply 'point' towards 'what always is'.  In the 'pointing' come the clues and the keys for those who sincerely want to know.

Coming to an understanding of our true nature is  something very subtle, something that, in due course can lead to very unexpected results.

Ultimately, a journey such as this can point us in the direction of life's greatest mystery.

Awareness.
