When we ask ourselves the question who am I in earnest, we have this expectation that we can answer the question.In reality though it is a trick question which is designed to push you further and further into self, until you surrender completely and find no self exists and the question of who am I is totally irrelevant.However this is not a conceptual exercise. It isn’t like saying ok I give up now and then you awaken. It isn’t even like saying well since I can’t define who I am, I just give up .
