  External changes means little Tsongkhapa...there is always change that is the nature of the material

  energy..change change every day a change...

  by being fixed in the consciousness of the spirit soul a wise being overcomes their bewilderment

  kaumaram yauvanam jara
  tatha dehantara-praptir
  dhiras tatra na muhyati
  

  SYNONYMS

  dehinaḥ—of the embodied; asmin—in this; yathā—as; dehe—in the body; kaumāram—boyhood; yauvanam—youth; jarā—old age; tathā—similarly; dehāntara—transference of the body; prāptiḥ—achievement;dhīraḥ—the sober; tatra—thereupon; na—never; muhyati—deluded.

  TRANSLATION

  As the embodied soul continually passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. The self-realized soul is not bewildered by such a change.

  PURPORT

  Since every living entity is an individual soul, each is changing his body every moment, manifesting sometimes as a child, sometimes as a youth, and sometimes as an old man. Yet the same spirit soul is there and does not undergo any change. This individual soul finally changes the body at death and transmigrates to another body; and since it is sure to have another body in the next birth-either material or spiritual-there was no cause for lamentation by Arjuna on account of death, neither for Bhīṣma nor for Droṇa, for whom he was so much concerned. Rather, he should rejoice for their changing bodies from old to new ones, thereby rejuvenating their energy. Such changes of body account for varieties of enjoyment or suffering, according to one's work in life. So Bhīṣma and Droṇa, being noble souls, were surely going to have either spiritual bodies in the next life, or at least life in heavenly bodies for superior enjoyment of material existence. So, in either case, there was no cause of lamentation.

  Any man who has perfect knowledge of the constitution of the individual soul, the Supersoul, and nature-both material and spiritual-is called a dhīra or a most sober man. Such a man is never deluded by the change of bodies. The Māyāvādī theory of oneness of the spirit soul cannot be entertained on the ground that spirit soul cannot be cut into pieces as a fragmental portion. Such cutting into different individual souls would make the Supreme cleavable or changeable, against the principle of the Supreme Soul being unchangeable.

  As confirmed in the Gītā, the fragmental portions of the Supreme exist eternally (sanātana) and are called kṣara; that is, they have a tendency to fall down into material nature. These fragmental portions are eternally so, and even after liberation, the individual soul remains the same-fragmental. But once liberated, he lives an eternal life in bliss and knowledge with the Personality of Godhead. The theory of reflection can be applied to the Supersoul who is present in each and every individual body and is known as the Paramātmā, who is different from the individual living entity. When the sky is reflected in water, the reflections represent both the sun and the moon and the stars also. The stars can be compared to the living entities and the sun or the moon to the Supreme Lord. The individual fragmental spirit soul is represented by Arjuna, and the Supreme Soul is the Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa. They are not on the same level, as it will be apparent in the beginning of the Fourth Chapter. If Arjuna is on the same level with Kṛṣṇa, and Kṛṣṇa is not superior to Arjuna, then their relationship of instructor and instructed becomes meaningless. If both of them are deluded by the illusory energy (māyā), then there is no need of one being the instructor and the other the instructed. Such instruction would be useless because, in the clutches of māyā, no one can be an authoritative instructor. Under the circumstances, it is admitted that Lord Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Lord, superior in position to the living entity, Arjuna, who is a forgotten soul deluded by māyā.

  So the answer is I am a pure spirit soul that has been covered by matter..

  Covered for a very long time...

  for so long we can hardly remember when it first started..

  So there are more questions that need to asked and answered...

  How can I find out my real identity what is the real truth why have I come here?

  Why do I have to suffer ?

  lets go to part two>>>> the next blog

  we are  pe rsons who never die... we have always been here and will always be...

  Never was there a time when we did not exist or in the future will we cease to be ,

  we are unborn eternal undying primeval we don't change even the body changes

  AHAM BRAHMASMI i AM PURE SPIRIT SOUL

  
  What we are cannot be destroyed or withered by wind or fire

  It cannot be slain even when the body is killed

  This not dogma but is common sense reasoning.

  The body is like a glove on a hand it is a covering for  the consciousness.

  The body is always changing not only in this life -from childhood youth then old age... but then again because

  desire is not finished at death.. to another body somewhere else by the sanction of the forces of material nature..

  Panacea... :) Who you are is not really a good question because when you say who am I it indicates the temporary designation of the present body which is always changing. People often answer---

  well I 'm a lawyer or a doctor or a mystic soothesayer or a fireman...

  So---I'll continue.....

  next let's explain some definitions....

  Jacob's  ladder---from the bible the dream of Jacob where he saw angels climbing up and down a staircase or a ladder,with some ahead and some behind...what does this mean?

  Its an analogy or an idea that symbolizes a deeper concept ..analogies are not perfectbut they are hints to the truth. The ladder is the pathway to higher dimensions, basically ascension going upward indicating motion

  and direction, you can go upwards and you can even go downwards

  to HELL
