Who are you?

When asked this question the top of mind answer would include name,age, profession,marital status and family details.Probe a little more and one mentions religion,country, ethnicity,vegetarianism or non-vegetarianism,economic status etc.Further inquiry reveals likes & dislikes,habits,value and belief system.Beyond this last description there is silence.But it is this core of silence which is you.Its the silence of your consciousness as the observer of your present life that is you.The rest is the ego of your personality.
