Gaahay Gaahay isay Padhaa Keejay

      (Do read it occasionally.

      There is no better book than your own self)

 

The hardest thing is to read yourself.

Reading others - judging and commenting on them is easy.

But to see ourselves with a fair view - with untainted self-view - to observe ourselves objectively is very difficult.

To evaluate ourselves - truthfully - is the first step on the path of the spiritual journey that leads to the destination of eternal peace.

The ancient Indian Scriptures insisted on searching within - not outside - Searching for our own shortcomings - the elements or emotions that might have contaminated or covered our real self and removing them. 

When we stop judging others and start evaluating ourselves, we start progressing on our path to liberation.
