Gnōthi Seautón (Γνωθι Σαυτόν)

know thyself, is a fundamental
"must do"
for any planning
to die right…
#meditation

“Zi zhī”
Word of me, my word… known shown
“Atmanam viddhi”
Katha Upanishad:
“Atmanam rathinam viddhi,
shariram ratham eva tu”
(Know thyself as the charioteer,
and thy body as the chariot)
HP does not allow text in the languages of the other culture versions of Gnōthi Seautón (Γνωθι Σαυτόν)... that is a shame, because the beauty of the idea gram is a child first learning to write with a brush, and the word zi... two parts of one word picture, and the Melanesian script is calligraphic mastery.
