When this question is asked, most people answer it in three different ways. The first person answers - I am the body. I look like the body. I have a name. I have a title. I have a designation. I have an appearance. I am this appearance.
But fortunately, some of us are lucky enough to go beyond this and we realize that we are not the body, but we are the self. We are not simply the body, but we are the body, the mind, the intellect, the ego, and the spirit and the soul. When we start realizing that we are not the body and we are actually the self, the human self, which is the composite collection of all these things put together, then we start praying and building a connection with God, because we realize that we are the power within. This is the stage where we move away from the lower state of being just the body. But we have still not reached the higher state of being the spirit of God itself.
A few are luckier still and move to level three, where we realize we are not the body because the body dies and is consumed and goes back to being a part of the five elements. The mind, the intellect and ego - are subtle parts of the body, which leave the body and therefore, are without an identity. When this inner instrument of the mind, intellect, ego complex realizes the truth that we are the divine spirit, God itself and like the wave merges with the ocean, merges with the creator itself, becoming God as God particles, going back to its source, energy - this is reaching the third level of existence.
Therefore, analyze what you think you are. Are you the body? Are you the self? Or are you the spirit of God that lives within you? What are you?
