They are forever free who renounce all selfish desires and break away from the ego-cage of ‘I’, ‘me’, and ‘mine’ to be united with the Lord. Attain to this, and pass from death to immortality.

This is true knowledge: to seek the Self as the true end of wisdom always. To seek anything else is ignorance.
