-Jo Coudert
If you have known yourself, you have known everything else. Know that, by knowing which, you will know everything else. The Bible says, “Seek that kingdom within you.” Once you have found that, then everything else will be automatically added unto you; you don’t have to go looking for things outside; they will all come to you.
-Satchidananda Saraswati "Swami Satchidananda"
You might say that we use ourselves to discover ourselves.
