The Quest for Inner Truth

The question of whether there is a God, a truth, a reality - whatever name we give it - is never answered in dusty books, by austere priests, erudite philosophers or glorified saviors. No one and nothing can answer this question except yourself. That is why self-knowledge is the North Star of our inner journey.
Lack of maturity is like sailing without a compass on a stormy sea. Knowing yourself is the beginning of wisdom, the beacon that guides our steps in the dark night. But what are you really? This "individual" shaped by the winds of culture, society and religion?
There is a difference between a human being and an individual. An individual is a local entity, rooted in a country, belonging to a culture, a society, a religion. But the human being, like a breath of wind, is not a local entity; he is everywhere, crossing borders like the breeze. If the individual acts only in one corner of the vast field of life, his actions are lost like waves in the immensity of the ocean. Embrace self-knowledge, not as a laborious quest, but as a dance with the universe.
