Self Knowledge

Three couplets attributed to the Commander of the Faithful, Imam Ali (A.S.) on the topic of Self Knowledge:

"The cure is with you but you do not see. And the illness is from you, but you are unaware.

You are the clear book whose letters make manifest the hidden.

Do you think you are some small mass while within you there dwells a great world?"

(Source: Insan Kamil, Murtada Mutahhari, pg 203)
