Who am I?

 

 Who Am I? 

As all living beings desire to be happy always, without misery, as in the case of everyone there is observed supreme love for one’s self, and as happiness alone is the cause for love, in order to gain that happiness which is one’s nature and which is experienced in the state of deep sleep where there is no mind, one should know one’s self. For that, the path of knowledge, the inquiryof the form “Who am I?”, is the principal means.      

 

 

1.      Who am I?  The gross body which is composed of the seven humours (dhatus), I am not; the five cognitivesense organs, viz. the senses of hearing, touch, sight, taste, and smell, which apprehend theirrespective objects, viz. sound, touch, colour, taste, and odour, I am not; the five cognitive senseorgans, viz. the organs of speech, locomotion, grasping, excretion, and procreation, which have as their respective functions speaking, moving, grasping, excreting, and enjoying, I am not; the five vital airs, prana, etc., which perform respectively the five functions of in-breathing, etc., I am not; even the mind which thinks, I am not; the nescience too, which is endowed only with the residual impressions of objects, and in which there are no objects and no functioning’s, I am not.

Takk fyrir allar þessar upplýsingar sem hér er að finna á síðunni þinni ... það er svo notalega auðvelt að gleyma hér stað og stund, þegar maður gluggar í öll þessi fræði ... sem svo óendanlega heillandi eru ... 

langaði að senda þér nokkur orð um skynjun mína og skilning sem kannski tengist þessari grein þinni um : Who am I
