Who Am I? Comments

Rating: 4.9

'Who am I? Why am I so shy?
Why do I want to know? why do I look upon sky?
From where have I come? Where have I to go?
Oh dear beloved travellers in temples why do you bow? '

Why is one cruel? Why is one kind? Why does air blow and refresh human mind? Why have we come and what is our vision? It's indeed very difficult to answer these questions my friend. An insightful piece. Top score and to my favourites.

This poem captures the existential yearning in all sentient conscious life, who we are is the most fundamental questions we face and this poem addresses it directly with beauty. Fantasti

We are all throwing into this world not knowing who we are, and as we grow and change we follow roads that nobody else can venture to try and find answers that are ours alone. A Breathtaking work!

These are some innocent question we keep pondering on. They are very pertinent and profound, they make our life meaningful. Your smart questions on soul and life go hand in hand. Superb poem. Liked the philosophical undertone.10***

The answers lie within. It is our duty to search for them. Excellent philosophical poem, Pintu!

We are souls and we have to enjoy fruits as per our Karma (action) . This poem reveals much about soul, body and karmic philosaophy. Beautiful poem. Thanks for sharing with Poet's Note.

A poem that delves deep into one's being and the queries why, where, how need to be answered. The answer is the best when the answer comes from oneself. There is nothing better than your true conscience. A beautiful poem - a quest for truth. Thank you Pintu Mahakul for sharing your thoughts through these philosophical verses......10

We all seem to have forgotten why we are here if there ever is a good answer to satisfy all. But we have all these valid questions that the poem asks beautifully yet no answers.

Beautiful poem.. " who am I? " Certainly is most intriguing question.. infinite ways to question " who Am I" have infinite answers

8) so in 2011 it remained with poems and nothing else. In 2017 my " activation on PH" really started. You can see that I could respond to the comments. There was also a constant lacking of time. This was largely due to my work as a teacher. I really enjoyed your fascinating poem. Thanks for sharing. May God Bless You in Abundance. Your poet friend from PF time.

7) After the closing of PF I started to delve into " how to continue my poems on PH" . I am still grateful to you that through your directions, I was able to walk THE right direction on PH. My poems were from 2011, I could only submit, but I could not respond any poem from another poet. Also about the Messages that were sent to me, I could not answer,

6) This applies to all other characteristics, not just to " being shy" . Your poem Who am I is concise, but it deserves maximum answers than just this minimum. I had a good and joyful time in reading this, but also immensely loved this immense, deeply philosophical poem. I am very happy that I have read it now, at the time of creation I was still very active on Poetfreak.

5) I have taken one facet and each time I have to force myself not to stray too much, whatever facet or factor that is, the question “ Who am I “ cannot be answered in a short or simple text. That is my vision and this is personal. When I barely knew you, I immediately knew that you are as shy as I am. I knew that because of the way you looked. I cannot explain this to you because the principle " us know us" is. This is a Dutch saying.

4) A murderer is significantly a person with a serious mental disorder who has to be admitted to a home for the mentally disturbed and who is guided by professionals to ultimately spiritual healing for the patient. Often there is a relapse. But nowadays through increasingly better medication, this person can manage himself in society.

3) ..We can continue to mention this with responsible, genetic and philosophic backgrounds, but the person “I” is and remains a mystery. The form of " shyness" is also hereditary, such as the temper to always get angry, or the will to kill people all the time.

2) ..These studies satisfy our hunger for the question who we are, and who we are also greatly depending on our own insight This aspect is largely shaped by heredity factor we take a few examples: child of a genius father, can also be a genius, but it can also be the opposite, that it becomes a child with less fortunate I.Q. results As we grow into more maturity, our “I” is also formed, most become much wiser and obeying, but others have become a lot bolder and stiffer.

who am I? yes, WHO am I? who AM i? Shyness is hereditary, but being shy is chosen One can develop into being shy no longer and there still remains the choice to remain shy. One topic, so many kinds of explanation so we can continue to ask about ourselves that is excellent done here and very detailed. We keep wondering for most of our lives but the " other why" of us is considerably silent through our studies on various things It depends on which studies we take
