"Who are you?"
I had encounter this question before. At that time I didn't know how to answer.
In the normal sense, we would answer by stating our identity (name, gender, race, nationality, etc.), our relationship with so and so (we work/volunteer for this or that company, we study here, etc.), our background (family, tribe, education, travel experience, etc.), etc.
In the absence of all these concepts, which exist only in the physical dimension, how do you answer the question: Who are you?

You are the Sacred Mountains, and the Medicine Lake that is found there. You are much more than all the things you listed.
Listen to this story, to understand what I am talking about. It is about the Vision Quest, and the Sacred Mountains, and perceiving who you are.

Someone to develop and discover every day without what u mentioned. U forgot to mention religion/belief. Because its not something u can be. U cant be a christian or muslim or something like that. Only in the mind. U can practice a belief though.

Something that cannot exist, thus there is no answer.

In absence of physical concepts I see little evidence of existence, thus I answer if I removed all that make up who / what I am there will be no possibility of my existence 
If I step back in the world in which I exist, the answer is simple: I am a Titan, a Primordial being that exist far beyond this human form of mine. |
