Great Regulars: Take the question "who am I" seriously,

though, and you will immediately see what Krishnamurti was driving at when he suggested that if you want to understand a problem you'll do well not to be too anxious for an answer.

The fact is, if you sit for a moment and wonder who you are, the question quickly opens out into a mystery without a horizon. Looked at from within, the self seems vaster than the world itself. Scary, too.

from Frank Wilson: When Falls the Coliseum: That's What He Said: Freedom from the desire for an answer
