He who knows Himself knows God
In a medieval manuscript, a king lives on the rim of a wheel, which we may call our subjective and temporal truths: money, pleasure, fame, power, etc. The king moves in a never-ending process of: “I am reigning”, “I have reigned”, “I have lost my kingdom”, and “I shall reign”. He spends all his life worrying about what he is going to lose, because of his attachment to things that are temporal. In the centre, however, is the objective and eternal truth, represented as Christ (a symbol of the Self), which stays eternally firm no matter what happens in life. This is God, an infinite sphere, the centre of which is everywhere, the circumference nowhere. The Sage seeks to align himself to this infinite centre, and attain inner calm. The Self is a God-image. He who knows himself knows God. We reach God through the Self, but God is not the Self, for he is behind and above it.
