Who am I?

 Funny question!
Serious question!

 Our ultimate being does not ask that question,
because it already knows.
So, who asks?

 It must be that awareness,
forgetting its purity aspect,
which believes the reflections in the mind,
and mistakes those reflections
for itself –
but is uncertain.

 The mind
cannot answer the question,
who am I?

 Ultimate being is
pure, uncontaminated Shunyata.
Emptiness.
That’s who I am.

 But
Shunyata has a cognisant quality
that is too active,
and has forgotten its
Shunyata quality.

 It is cognisant awareness
that asks the question
who am I?

 Cognisant awareness,
as usual,
looks into the mind for the answer,
and finds everything but the answer.

 Cognisant awareness
comes up with the answer,
“I am, who I am,”
and continues to go
round in circles.

When cognisant awareness
finally recognises its true nature
– emptiness –
the question no longer arises!
