Who am I? | Quiz

“Duality”, “Consciousness” and “a physical being” are all different answers to the question of “Who am I?”, but these different answers all have unintended consequences. How do we know that there is an after life if we are just a physical body that decays after we die? When is a baby a human and is birth control really wrong? These are but a few tough questions to answer, but they all stem from one consistent problem and that is that we just don’t know what we really are. If we conclude that we have a soul, then we can conclude that there is an afterlife. If we know that a baby becomes human at their first breath, then we can conclude that abortion is okay. But in both cases we have no real proof to prove that we are a soul, nor do we have proof that a human starts to live at their first breath. Because we have yet to come up with a consistent answer to this question and because this answer solves other emotionally charged issues, then it is imperative that we all have a common understanding of who we are before we even try to answer any of these questions.

TAKE THE “WHO AM I?” QUIZ The quiz will walk you through this subject in a more interactive manner by asking you questions that you have to answer, with corresponding feedback to help you understand this problem in more depth.

What about people who can’t think consciously because of brain damage?

To answer this question, you need a different perspective. Assume that you are a deer who lives in the forest. Within this forest is a road that has multiple different cars that go by. From a deer’s perspective, there is no way to know that there is someone in that car controlling it and instead they will think that a car is a living being.

Now from our perspective, if the driver wanted to signal left, but the tail light was out, would we state that the driver can no longer signal left because they want too or would it be safer to say that it is the car that has the problem? We’d say the car has the problem, because the driver wants to turn left, but there is no way to do so unless the driver fixes the car. Once the car is fixed, then you will see that the driver will signal left.

If the car was your body and the driver was you, then we can state that if there is damage to the body, you won’t act the way you want too because your body is broken. It doesn’t mean that you don’t want to do what you want, but you just can’t do it. Therefore, if we remove the physical elements that help to create conscious thought, then this does not mean that we do not want to think consciously. Instead it means we just can’t physically think consciously.

What does this mean for my life?

The idea that you are the controller of thought has some amazing consequences and they are:

* You are not your body, so you don’t have to be judged by the way it looks.
* You are not your results, so you don’t have to feel judged that you don’t have enough.
* You are not your actions, so you don’t have to be shy
* You are not your emotions, so you can cry if you want too
* You are not your thoughts, so thinking differently then others isn’t wrong

These are just a few of the endless benefits that happen when you realize who you are. As you go through the site, you will see how this concept of being the controller of thought helps you to become who you want to be.

Summary

Using the two guidelines of being in control of who we are and not being a multiple of something, we can conclude that we are not our bodies, results, actions, emotions or thoughts. Instead we are the controller of thought. These thoughts that we control are conscious thoughts that allow us to think of a variety of different thoughts. It is when these thoughts are repeated that we create unconscious thought, which we do not control. Additionally, when there are physical problems with our bodies we cannot think in the same manner because we need the physical element to express our thoughts in the physical world. Without the physical thinking element, we act as if we cannot think. Lastly, there are numerous advantages from a psychological standpoint that come about when we view ourselves as the creator of thought.

This subject is the bedrock of most of the other subjects listed within here. In order to get a better understanding of this subject, we ask that you question it. Once we have a better understanding of this subject, if we don’t already, then we can move on to other questions that determine how you can become who you want to be. Remember that this answer was based upon the two guidelines listed above and unless we applied the guidelines wrong, the discussion should be about the guidelines and not the answer.

It is our hope that this quiz has helped change your perspective on life to make you realize that you are not defined by your body, results, actions, emotions or thoughts. This new perspective will allow you to live a happier life because you now know what it is that you do control. You control you, as the controller of conscious thought.
