Who am I ? “ The Eternal Quest ”

We all know or have heard “ Energy can neither be created nor destroyed ”, means this entire world holds energy ( or made up of energy ) that is constant we neither reduce nor add anything to it .
We all are replica of this universe just smaller in size so we all are constant energies as its explained in this shloka from one of the Indian scriptures ( Upnishad ):
Purnamadah , purnamidam purnat purnam udachyate ; Purnasya purnam adaya purnam evavasisyate .
Translation : That origin of all things is full ; this entire creation that has come from that origin of all things is also full ; from that full this full has come ; having taken away this full from that full ; the full still remains unaffected .
Well now :
“ If we take something from something , the source is supposed to diminish in its content to the extent of that which has been taken away from it . This is common arithmetic . If we take something from something , the quantum of content in the original reservoir is lessened . If the world has come from GOD , some part of God must have gone to constitute this world and , to that extent , God must be less . Is it so ?
Meaning of above shloka is
The Upanishad says it is not so . If we take away infinite from infinite the infinite is not reduced in any way , because one cannot take away anything from the infinite . Therefore , if this so called infinite of this creation is taken to have emanated from that supreme fullness of infinity , it need not follow
