The most revolutionary thing in our lives is self-knowledge, to awaken to ourselves as we truly are. To cut through the illusions and the images of the ego, to cut through what we want other people to think about us, to let all of that go and just to be ourselves – that’s the most revolutionary thing in the world. And it’s the revolution of the gospel, to come to that self-knowledge. And it not only changes us, it changes the world that we are part of, the little part of the world in which we are living and making our contribution.
