The current dissertation investigates the knowledge of God as My Innermost Self in the memory, having as reference the Confessions, book X. Following the Augustinian view, here we intend to analyze which is the type of knowledge possible to men, and where to find it. For the Bishop of Hippo, only through the foundation of the christian faith a knowledge of God would be accessible. Considering the studied book, that access will be possible when a path in the memory is traversed, based in three actions - one exterior, another interior, and finally a superior. It is through these actions that the human being could know God in his most intimate place that we do not know of, but that exists inside every single men. By making use of authors such as Johannes Brachtendorf, Peter Brown, Philoteus Boehner and Joel Gracioso, this research seeks to concentrate in the referred question, tracing in an objective way all biographic influences that inspired Saint Augustine to achieve his conviction that God is more Intimate of me than I am of Him
