Question: Is it posssible for anyone to know their true self in this existence!?

Of course it is! But I believe a lot of people live behind a mask!. They live behind this persona of having the perfect life!. And the ones who only think they need to believe it, when it is clearly not true, find themselves in turmoil!. It probably makes it hard to discover oneself, especially if they find undesirable characteristics that do not match with the outside view from others!.
I think for those who do find themselves, there has to be a certain surrendering, because they know the benefit will change them greatly!. I have found myself, only within the last year!. This happened because I had someone to pour my heart and soul out to!. I could tell of my weaknesses, my fears, dreams, desires, and just my everyday life!. In the process of trying to make someone understand, I found that I knew myself better!. I love myself better now!. It is a great feeling!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It is possible, but some people CHOOSE not to find their true self!. It's always possible, it always has been!. But, if you're not willing to try to learn who you are, if you follow peer pressure, or act how you think you are, you won't find out anything about yourself!. And, personally, if I do have to die, which we all do, I'd like to know my real true self when I do!. I wouldn't want to die, or make any life changing desicions, without knowing who I really am, or my desicions, would be based on a fake identity!. Gosh, I'm not even good at this kind of stuff, I mean, I'm a wannabe writer, but not philosophical, so if I'm not making sense, I'm sorry!. But I'm getting off track, to answer your question, yes it is possible!. Hope I helped!Www@QuestionHome@Com

everyone is different but the equivalently the same!.

Buddha said something to the effect that it is by others lack of enlightenment that my enlightenment is known!.

This is the difference between relativistic thinking and absolute thinking!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
