“Who am I”

“Why do you waste your time like this?”,
a passerby asked a sanyasi sitting by the riverside.

He remained silent.

“Don’t you want to live a life?”

Without opening his eyes, in a voice deeper from within him asked back.

“You have lived your life?”

“I have. I still do. I have started a family, I own a house, and I own a business. made money, finding ways to make more, so I can live happily”, he replied egoistically.

“You think you will be happy in the end?”

“Yes, I have owned everything”

But with one reply from the Sanyasi, his ego was broken to smithereens.

“You don’t own your breath”
