Acharya Prashant discusses the dialogue from the Hamsa Gita where the Sanakadi Rishis ask Shri Krishna about His identity. Shri Krishna responds by questioning the validity of their inquiry. He explains that if He is the Soul, then the question is illogical because the Soul is non-dual and lacks any distinct identity, variety, or division. If He is considered a physical body, He points out that He is composed of the same five elements as everyone else, making a unique personal identity impossible. This response serves to negate the ego and the false sense of separation that leads one to ask 'Who am I?' He further elaborates that the question 'Who am I?' often stems from a hidden egoistic assumption that the questioner already exists as a separate entity. Acharya Prashant emphasizes that the Soul is not a personal possession and cannot be categorized or described with attributes like caste, quality, or action. He warns against the common misuse of the word 'Soul' to justify physical or emotional desires. In spirituality, the Soul is singular and beyond all descriptions; therefore, a truly realized being does not provide a direct answer to such questions but instead deconstructs the question itself to reveal the underlying ignorance. Finally, the speaker highlights that the hallmark of a spiritual teacher is the refusal to provide superficial answers. Instead of satisfying the questioner's curiosity with information, the teacher investigates the questioner and the source of the question. By tearing apart the question, the teacher addresses the falsehood or 'ego' from which the query arises. This method of inquiry, common in Vedantic traditions and scriptures, aims to lead the seeker toward silence and Samadhi rather than just accumulating more intellectual data.
