“In ancient times, the temple of Delphi proclaimed "Know Thyself“ & the Greek philosophers made it their central theme, because in the knowing of one‘s true Self, we discover not a name or a lineage, but a whole new dimension of what it means to be human. In our very mortality is embedded something of the eternal. Encased within the bones & sinews that are destined to disintegrate is Spirit that comes from beyond and returns home when we are "born into Heaven“ as the Orthodox say, or when we cross that threshold. These ideas cannot be reduced to mere belief systems and dogmas. They have been vividly part of the human experience from the beginning. (p. 8-9)” ― Theodore J. Nottingham, Doorway to Spiritual Awakening
Awakening is nothing but Self-Realization.
“Your own Self-Realization is the greatest service you can render the world.” - Ramana Maharshi
