his self knows his lord,
it tells you about how important the knowledge
of self is.

at the most fundamental
level of the human being
is foundation.
It's as foundational as foundational can be.
And then from there, when you understand this
in the religious context,
it includes

in the category of psychology or even pseudo
spirituality.
Some of which that we can benefit from.
But we have to take from those things
