Dada BhagwanWho am I?’- Not knowing this is the greatest death to the Soul (one’s own self)!
About This Quote
The greatest death to the soul is to not know who one is. We are all filled with the fear of death, but how often do we let that fear consume us? How often do we live our lives in fear of losing our identities? I see many people who are lost in their lives, drowning in the sea of life itself. They swim through life without any knowledge of who they are apart from what they are doing at that particular moment. If you are not teaching yourself who you are then you are allowing life to do it for you.
