How realisation begins?
§1
Realising one's insignificance
Book 5 · Character and conduct: courage, humility, confidence, honesty Also: Spirit, soul and liberation
[Music] how realization begins. So that's how well I will say that you will become aware that you are realizing something when you realize you are not that important to the world. You are just another insignificant fellow and you think you are important. From that moment you will become more serious and your journey towards more serious realizations will begin. You have done something that you will become part of the memory of the society that that will make you important. If nobody is remembering you you are nothing.
§2
The hero of one's own story
Book 5 · Sayings, aphorisms and short parables
I will say I will add one more thing. You may not be so important to the society in the world. You may be the most insignificant fellow but you are the hero of your life story. So for your story you are important than us.
