Who am I?

Ramana maharishi said, enquire who am I? So has any of you have found who you are? If yes please comment.

I am absolutely-insanely-mysteriously-unknowably inevitable.

That is not a bug, it’s All Good.

I look around the infinite field of consciousness and just see beauty all around. I can’t not see it. It’s manifesting as everything simultaneously. Wooooow.

I am not a human experiencing reality. I am reality experiencing a human dream!

And there’s no one here who can stop it. There’s nobody here! Who is DOING all of this? Of course!

Nice answer.

There are two parts to the inquiry.

The first part is about the old unexamined identity: "Who do I think I am?". The answer is often concrete, like "I think I am this body, etc...". The goal is to examine old assumptions.

The second part is more open-ended. It's about trying to get in touch with the present moment instead of re-engaging with the thinking mind. It's about getting a sense of life, really, regardless of answer. Like, am I truly living or just being a robot?

@Jirh I like your answer as well.

Ramana’s teaching is that you should NOT answer the question “who am I ?” Verbally or conceptually .Just ask it and look within your own being and find the source of the “I” .
