who i am ?

The first step in spiritual life is:

Learning to control your mind.
You learn to control your mind by inquiring,
"To whom does the mind come?"
This makes you realize that the mind comes to your body.
It's part of your body process.
But in truth you have no mind.
You are mindless.
When you are mindless you are Brahman.
You are God.
Where the mind is limited.
You have to always go beyond the mind.
You stop paying attention to the thoughts.
Let the thoughts do what they will.
Allow the thoughts to frighten you if they will.
To tell you all kinds of stories.
To tell you all kinds of things.
Do not pay any attention.
When you ignore your mind it will go away. 

The second step in spiritual progress is: 

To develop humility.
And humility means you do not judge people.
You do not feel slighted when someone talks about you
or tells you something rude.
You do not get angry or upset.
You just remain yourself.
