This is my entry into the "Untalented Contest" initiated by @surpassinggoogle and I think everybody must have been familiar with this name @surpassigngoogle who is a great gentleman having had so many initiatives for the new users, minnows and for this steemit community.
Who Am I ?
I am shivohum and my age is 34, joined in steemit 1 year back but at that time I was not aware of the potential of Steemit, so remained idle over steemit for almost a year and suddenly one of my friend reminded me about steemit and when i checked I can realize that I have lost considerable amount of time by being inactive over a year. But I still summed up myself to start up again, I just assured myself that nothing has lost, only a great opportunity I have lost but the Opportunity word is still there to stand up again for me. After that I started it again with full energy since August 2017.
That was a mere introduction and the question was "Who Am I " ??
I said "shivohum"
Or in other words "My name is shivohum"
So indirectly you said you are this body but you never said "I am this body" or you also say "This is my arm, my chest, my legs, my ears, my eyes, my head etc , then I would ask who is "I" and who is "My", Have you ever puzzled by it ?
No, prior to this contest I never even thought of "Who Am I", In fact i was not aware of this sense of knowledge, but right now my mind is just getting puzzled by this question. Simply since childhood people used to call me by the name "shivohum", I consider myself to be the name itself. But I can realize now that what If i change my name !!!!! So there is something else to understand beyond my understanding.
Would you like to be "I" forever or "My"..? There are two oceans, one is "I" and the other is "My". Those who want to swim in the ocean of "I" are never died, while those who are swimming in the ocean of "My" have never lived. So you must want to be such that you would never die again. Then I further said, there is no worry in "I". Dont worry for "My". Because "I" is immortal and "My is mortal. Therefore once you separate "I" from "My" then the whole world would look just as an illusion.
You said to separate "I" from "My" but how to separate that ?
Your name is shivohum and you have the ID in steemit as shivohum2015, now both are separate because one is the name of human being who operates an id in the name of shivohum2015, that means the ownership of the ID is borne by "shivohum" Right... Now coming to the point. “I” is God (the Self) and “my” is illusory attachment. “My” is relative to “I.” “I” is real.“I” and “my” are completely separate. If everyone, understood just this much, most of their problems would lessen considerably. This is a science. “I” and “my” are absolutely separate. “I” is the natural state of the Self, whereas “my” is a sense of ownership.
If I can afford to live in this worldly life, then there is nothing I need to understand further, as long as I am earning handsome money and all my requirements ar getting fulfilled, but if I find the worldly life bothersome then I need to understand spirituality. In spirituality, I need to know the nature of the Self (Soul). When 'who am I' is known then all puzzles will be solved.
The Absolute 'I' within me is God and I am completely Independent. There is no one that can hurt me or hinder me. The only things that can hurt or hinder me, are my own mistakes.
Thank you so much @surpassinggoogle for initiating such a contest for steemit community, I am grateful to you @surpassinggoogle.

Thank you very much for participating.
i will need to do a full-blown reading over time. i decided to just stop by a bit for now. The turn-out has kept growing (currently around 150 posts that i have to read and counting and support with vote but i submit all entries to some friends as well to support. The experience has been awesome. I will come back for a full blown comment to empower you when i fully read. This is beyond a contest, so there will be a ton of variations to participate in, for fun, community and ultimately to bring about success in every facet, steemit and beyond. The whole endeavor is a curriculum from "school of life", raw down-to-earth stuff, without books involved; stemming from unadulterated love for humans; humans.
