WHO AM I?????

This particular write-up was given to me by my friend Saloni as a part of the "make a difference" assignment in psychology class...this was taken from the magazine "Frozen Thoughts" written by "Megha Bajaj"...
A man arrogantly walks up to a saint, sitting by a river and says," oh! sage, i have heard a lot about you. It appears that you ahve helped several farmers find their true nature, and live a spiritually aligned life. I'm a learned teacher and almost know everything about spirituality. So, can you still help you?"
The sage smiles and asks," yes ,son. I think i can help you. Tell me who are you?
"I just told you-I'm a learned teacher!" replied the man impatiently.
The saint replies, "but that's your profession, who are you?"
The man taken aback replies," I am Ishwarchand".
"Alas! but that's your name, who are you?" repeats the saint.
Bewildered, the man hurriedly says,"I am a man!"
to this the saint replies,"Ah! but that's your gender. Who are you?"
The man completely confused makes a final attempt, "I am a human."
The saint shakes his head and says, "that's just your species, who are you?"
The man then falls at the saint's feet and weeps,"great sage, I no longer know who i am!"
"Good, that's the best place to begin your spiritual journey." Replies the saint with a smile.

As it has been rightly said that,"True knowledge is knowing "WHO I AM" and true joy being that "I".
When people start their quest for finding answers for the question "WHO I AM?" the first thought which come across is their "BODY". A little later into their journey they feel it is their"MIND" and some more steps down the lane it feel s like it is your "HEART" that determines the persone you are. But, in the end the truth lies in the "SOUL". A person is his soul
