Am I a mother, a wife, a computer engineer, or a passenger? The truth is that you are a mother because you have a child. You are a wife because you have a spouse. A computer engineer because that is your job. A passenger because you are on a train. So all of your identities, everything you believe yourself to be, are all dependent on something else. So then, who are you? A mother, a wife, a computer engineer, or a passenger?
By not knowing the answer to the question, ‘Who am I?’, you keep on creating new identities of yourself, consequently going farther away from your true Self. All the suffering in life is because of not knowing your true identity.
So who are you? For infinite past lives, the Soul has been hidden beneath a veil of ignorance. Due to this, we have been unable to experience the true Self. The key is to remove the veil.
