Who am I? Am I my body? Am I my mind? Am my ego? Am I my breath ?Am I an Indian? Am I a Hindu? Am I my breath? I have been exploring these existancial questions for quite some time. I have come to realize that I have many external froms but my Inner Self is formless. I am a five dimentional human being: physical, mental, emotional, breathing and relational. This my understanding of me. I also have come to realze that they are transient aspects of my life. And my Real Self is beyond all
these dimensions. There is an ancient saying in Sanskrit: ekam sat vipra bahudha vadanti. There is OneTruth expressed in different ways. There is Oneness in Manyness. There is Universe in Multiverse. There is Unitive Consciousness that shines in all of us regardless of differentiating individual consciousness.
Sadly we get caught up in individual consciouness and walls between ourselves and others.
I see the value of objective and scientifick knowledge. Such knowledge is necessary for survival, worldly living and wordly progree. However, Knowing who I am is essential and valuable to all of us. Such knowing builds bridges that bring us togtether and create oneness.
I have been practicing Mindfulness Meditation that has helped me to realize the Truth that we all are children of God and we all are connected with each other as children of God. Practicing Mindfulness Meditation helps me free from the egoistic living. Such freedom from my ego's existence makes me live fully and joyfully.
May we all learn to live freely and fully! This my prayer.
Amin!
Namste!
