A journalist once asked a Buddhist master:
👉 What is the greatest problem of humanity?
Hunger? Greed? Power struggles? Violence?
The master paused and replied:
“Before I answer, let me ask you something… Who are you?”
The journalist thought for a moment.
🔹 I’m a journalist. → No, that’s your profession.
🔹 I’m a human being. → No, that’s your species.
🔹 I’m this body. → No, that’s just your form.
Finally, he admitted… “I don’t know.”
The master then said:
“That is the greatest problem of humanity: we don’t know who we are.”
In a world that teaches us how to function, but not who we truly are, this simple question is at the core of everything:
Who am I?
Have you ever stopped to truly explore this question? Or are we too busy defining ourselves by what we do, rather than by what we are?
