“To be an individual you have to become the Self. This is the missing point I think in the Western philosophy when we think of individuality and that’s why everything is going amok. The whole thing has to be worked out to your maturity of your wisdom. You have to become that peaceful beauty and then you become an individual personality. Like a fruit has to come up ripe and then it separates from the tree and becomes an individual when then through the seeds of this fruit other trees can grow.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @tanya_st
