Knowledge

If there is a kingdom of God to be found anywhere,
it is within oneself.
And it is, therefore, in the knowledge of self
that there lies the fulfillment of life.
The knowledge of self means the knowledge of one's body,
the knowledge of one's mind, the knowledge of one's spirit;
the knowledge of the spirit's relation to the body
and the relation of the body to the spirit;
the knowledge of one's wants and needs,
the knowledge of one's virtues and faults;
knowing what we desire and how to attain it,
what to pursue and what to renounce.
And when one dives deep into this,
one finds before one a world of knowledge which never ends.
And it is that knowledge which gives one insight into human nature
and brings one to the knowledge of the whole of creation.
And in the end one attains to the knowledge of the Divine Being.
