"Who Am I?"

Question.  Who am I? I have realised that all my life I have defined myself by what I am doing. It's just occurred to me that while I am in a human form I can never fully know "who I am".
I know what you are trying to say. While you are in human form, you can have a certain amount of self awareness. You will never have full self awareness while in human form because you are in a body that restricts you.

But you will have a certain amount of self awareness if you allow it, if you let it be rather than forcing it, rather than trying too hard.
You have been trying too hard for so long. You have forgotten what it means to just be.
So, it is time now to have some real quiet time. I know that it is difficult to still your mind. I know that it is difficult to stop still and listen. But you may actually find, if you learn to do this, you will hear. You will not hear in the way that you think. But it will come to you as what you call inspiration. So you may hear in ways that will be triggered by some external stimulus.
So, allow yourself to listen and be open to some form of external concepts or inspirations. That will come. It will apply to both of you.
When your wife says, ‘who am I, why am I here?’ Only she can answer that. You cannot take it out of the box of answers. The answers are all in the box, but they are not the answers that are going to satisfy you. They are the answers that will shape you. And you do not need shaping. You still tend to want to be shaped.
I think that is an automatic response we make.
Because that shape is saying who am I? I am this shape, I am that shape. But you haven't learnt how to shed those shapes yet. Shaping is one of the greatest problems that humanity has. Most humans assume a shape, or more than one shape in their lifetimes. Those shapes will take them away from who they really are.
So, as soon as you learn to shed those shapes, you will learn who you really are. But you will not come from your absolute deep knowing while you are still in human shape.
The human shape is necessary, but the shape that you assume as an attitude is not necessary. So, if you can change your attitude – I've said this thousands of times! Change your attitude to rid yourself of the shape that puts you into the box and limits you. That is where you must learn to be yourself, that is the true self that you have assumed on earth plane.
You will never know the absolute true self, but you will know the true self of earth plane. There is a difference. But that is all you need. If you were to assume the true shape, absolute shape, then you would not be here, you would not be human. Can you see the difference?
