How will we reach the other if we don't have "the key" to unlock the mysteries and complexities of the human soul? Let alone reaching for the Divine?! Hence a genuine and deep understanding of the inner self is paramount! You have an impressive ability to convey your profound thoughts in laconic writes! A philosopher and an adept dear Demetrios! Always a great pleasure to read. Be blessed.

Write in a laconic form takes many years of practice for it is easier to write long poems than short ones because in short poems words must be loaded with extra meaning . Thank you dear, Besma for taking the time to go to that extra lenght as to illuminate each writing. Be blessed as always. Thank you!

My dear friend, Charles as we ignore ourselves so others ignore themselves so it is impossible for them to know us for they suffer from double ignorance: Ignore themselves and ignore us! Only God knows who we really are and only to Him we must turn our attention through knowledge of the self! Thank you so much for your visit!

Hello Demetrios, Yes -- for sure, "Knowledge of Oneself" is indeed that ethereal key. A wondrously defined Monoku as always!! A definite treat to read. Best Wishes, Gary
