These questions are the traditional eternal questions that mankind has been thinking and pondering with. Among these, people are more interested to find the answer to the first one because that seems to be the most critical and of immediate relevance. "Who am I" seems to be the easiest one to answer and pretty straight forward. Are you sure? Just because you say so? Do you have any proof? No, because you don't need any proof for that kind of stupid, lame and commonsensical questions. But this "common sense" does not in any "sense" necessarily true. Then how you know who you really are? You don't, at least yet. So, is this most accessible and easy looking question in fact improvable and has to be taken as given? If yes, then again you are believing in something without any personal experience and validation. Believing in something without knowing the how and why, leads to rely on "hope", with the hope that you are somehow right. Indeed, it is just a hope, that you wish to come true, but you are not sure. This is why you are hoping on your belief in first place. This wishful thinking and hope leads to misery as hope was depicted as the evil that stays inside the Pandora's box to torment you eternally, hoping that "hope" will come out one day, but it never shows up and continues to be the source of misery!

So the first question does not have an answer, as of yet and it is not answerable unless you have the answer to the remaining Dyad of the Triad of the inquiry. Without the latter Dyad, the First is blind. If you have answer to the First without the answer to the Dyad then how can you be sure that whatever or whoever you think yourself is not a delusion, illusion, paranoia, dissociated identity disorder, split (schizo) personality (phrenia), multiple personality disorder, confabulation, false memories or an amnestics disorder? Scary, right? This is the danger of labeling yourself who you are just by your gut feelings/intuition, your emotional attachment and personal preference. Additionally, your answer to the first question can and have been molded and remolded by the society, culture, family, peer pressure, indoctrination from schools and disinformation propagated from mass media. Even worst, Gurus from the east are willing to give you a 'ready-made' answer to the first question based on your spiritual taste and need, but only in exchange of a hefty fee or donation to the "poor".

By this time it should be clearer and clearer to you that the first and most critical question of the Triad is not answerable at all by itself and in fact it is dangerous and misleading to try to have answer only that question in isolation. You better focus on the latter Dyad to find the First. If I give you the answer to the latter two questions then it is not your own and you will not have a complete satisfaction with those answers. You will become just another follower or disciple of the teacher. In order to become a true self-created Master (rather than a disciple) you have find answers of the all 3 of the grand Triad by a healthy combination of observation, experimentation, reason, intuition and imagination. All of these can be reduced to just one single trait- "be perceptive" about what's going on. This is the prime goal of life itself. Without any solution to the Triad, no pleasure is worth experiencing. But with the (dis)solution to the Triad, even simple thing becomes a sublime pleasurable experience! Life is short and there is no time to waste. So, seek.
