Microcosmic Unity

"Are we willing to go into the questions of knowing oneself? Because oneself is the world. Human beings right throughout the world - whatever, their colour, their religion, their nationality, their beliefs - suffer psychologically, inwardly. They go through great anxieties, great loneliness, have an extraordinary sense of despair, depression, a sense of the meaningless of living the way we do.


Throughout the world, people are psychologicaly similar. That's a reality, that's truth, that's actuality. So you are the world psychologically, and the world is you; and when you understand yourself you are understanding the whole human structure and nature. It is not mere selfish investigation, because when you understand yourself you go beyond yourself, a different dimension comes into being."
