”Know thyself - and thou shall know all the mysteries of the gods and of the universe.” What is so special about knowing yourself?? Is a person so mysterious that if anyhow he knows himself he will know all about gods and universe??? Does all the mysteries of GOD and UNIVERSE are within everyone?? Is it really difficult to know yourself?? What exactly is that attribute that a person should know about himself??? An alternative Latin rendering, Temet Nosce, appears inscribed above the doorway in the Oracle’s kitchen in the motion picture The Matrix. When Oracle told Neo that this means “know thyself”, Neo was never the same. He knew himself so all the mysteries of The Matrix so he was free from it and helped many people to get out of that Matrix.When I started the drive to know myself, I have to stumble at very first step as I was trying to know someone who was born on 24th October 1984 in Allahabad. That child was named as Anurag but today the Anurag I know has nothing in common with that child so in turn it has created an “identity crisis” for me. Who am I??? Am I the same child who was christened as Anurag??? I am not same; everything has changed from physical appearance to preferences to everything else. So what is that thing due to which I still recognize myself as Anurag??This feeling put me in catch-22 position because both these things can not be solved without each other so I decided to go on although I was full of confusion. But there was no fear, doubt or disbelief within me about my being successful in my search. The quest started, I have tried many ways some seems better than others but all of them have told me something about me. A lot many times there was repetition of outcome but still I am trying my best to find all within me and this search will never stop. I will search and find but who knows how much is still left to know so I will search again and I will find and this will become a never ending process propelled by power within.Still after so many years and finding a lot about myself, I can’t say what my properties are because they keep on changing as we all try to upgrade ourselves so I do. So I am continuously changing or upgrading myself as soon as I know about myself so that thing which I knew about myself is know longer in me. So the problem is at its own place but I believe one day I will be perfect and my search will stop.
