The inquiry of I

The inquiry of I.

There are many people that inquire, what is I?

Who is I?

Who am I?

And the nature of this inquiry is usually that of a reward, expectation to reward.

They have heard from this teacher or another, or even they echo within themselves that I is not the me.

It's not the ego.

It's not the mind.

That there is this real I.

And if they inquire into the nature of that I, they will be free.

They will be awakened, enlightened.

But I haven't seen anyone, obviously, including myself, that is happy to admit the presence of I now as it is within oneself.

I haven't seen because it has nothing to do with me.

I cannot inquire into something which is existed, existence, that which I is, I am, without setting a distance, a gap, a divide.

If at all there is an inquiry into the nature of I that does not cultivate separation, divide, duality, it must be the inquiry of I.

I itself.

Now itself as it is in itself meet that which it is.

Can I meet that which I am, which it is, which you are?

I don't know.

This is the truth.

I don't want to know.

I don't want to win a reward.

I just hope to spend the quality of time of now, watching, looking, listening, inquiring into the nature of that I am.
