Know thyself before trying to know about others.

[Guest guest]

If we happened to meet somebody who is not known to us we enqire, "who are you'? Wherefrom you are coming? But we seldom asks the same question to our own self. Of course no answer will be forthcoming. But we should dive deep within ourself and find out the real identity of our own self. If you want to know who you are, find out the source from where the 'i' thought arises. The origin of breath and the origin of 'i' thought are from the same source or place as per Bagawan Ramanamaharishi. First the 'i' thought arises, then only 'you and we' thoughts arise. When there is no first person, how we can think about second or third person. But as per Advaita thought, One alone exists. All else is delusion like the snake that is perceived by seeing a coir lying across the road in the twilight. Sairam.
