2. "If I ask who am I then who is asking who am I, who am I and who
is listening ?" is a very interesting and deep question.
The following is my answer to the question:
Full time true self (enlightened person) never asks such a question
because s/he knows s/he is the whole cosmos. So, "Who am I?"'s
"I" is ego or temporary true self (those who are mindful
temporarily but aren't enlightened yet). Ego or temporary true self
is asking "Who am I?". The answer to "Who is listening?" has three
patterns. If ego is asking "Who am I?", only ego is listening or ego
and temporary true self are listening. If temporary true self is
asking "Who am I?", ego and temporary true self are listening.

1. Deep Question and Answer
(ego, temporary true self, full time true self)

3. When I had two versions of myself, I asked to myself, “How can I
stop rejecting myself? How can I love myself?”. And I found out
that "I" was ego and "myself" was temporary true self as follows:
How can I (ego) stop rejecting myself (true self)?
How can I (ego) love myself (true self)?
* True self of above means temporary true self (those who are
mindful temporarily but aren't enlightened yet).
So I needed to transcend duality.
Therefore, there are three versions of oneself which are ego,
temporary true self and full time true self. Evolution of humanity
means the evolution from ego to temporary true self, and the
evolution from temporary true self to full time true self.
