The "Who Am I?" inquiry is detailed in the excellent book
"The Spiritual Teachings of Ramana Maharshi" published by Shambhala
Books ($12.00).
You can order this book on-line from (among other sources):

"The ego arises from the mistaken notion that the light of consciousness
reflected in the intellect and coloured by objectively perceived phenomena
is the true nature of the Self. Thus, the personal ego falsely identifies
the Self with that which is not the Self and vice versa." - Mark Dyczkowski
