Every Confusion is About Who You Are

2021-02-22

Every confusion is truly about 'Who you are'—the only question worth asking, whose answer determines all else and leads to liberation.

Ananta

Remember one thing - every confusion is only about ‘Who you are.’ Every confusion is only about 'Who you are.’ Even if it is asking about some other thing, you may feel like this has nothing to do with ‘Who I Am’ but it is only about ‘Who you are.’ So come to this recognition of ‘Who you are’ then all of these confusions will go away.

Seeker

But I already think, what I feel then sometimes I get a look into this recognition and… Also I feel even more I [am] just deepening inside in the Truth more these kind of fears and mind-stuff is just coming up. And it's not like a constant thing.

Ananta

So ‘Who are you?’

Seeker

Yeah this is the question. [Silence] I don't know.

Ananta

That is what is finding.

Seeker

Yeah.

Ananta

That, I would say, the only thing with worth finding out is that. Because everything else depends on that all other answers depend on ‘Who you are.’ Whether you will come back or not depends on ‘Who you are.’ Whether this is your first lifetime or millionth lifetime depends on ‘Who you are.’ Whether karma works on you or not depends on ‘Who you are.’ So just keep your focus on one question if you want a question then it is just this one question - ‘Who Am I?’ If you feel like you don't want any question and you want to leave everything, then surrender everything this is the path of either Self-inquiry or surrender.

Seeker

I would say thank you very much and but still is a question ‘Okay, but what if I will never find an answer or the answer will never find me?’

Ananta

You keep coming to Satsang then I give you a guarantee you'll find.
