About
**Guruji’s Quote:** *“The longest journey is from yourself to your Self.”* What is the difference between yourself and your Self? Through this simple distinction in English, we explore a profound insight of Advaita Vedānta. We spend our lives improving our Body, Mind and Intellect (BMI), often forgetting to enquire into our true nature. Drawing upon Bhagavad Gītā 15.16, we reflect on the journey from identifying with the changing BMI to recognising the changeless Ātman. The destination is not becoming something new, but discovering what we have always been. **Hari aum!**
