📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK

What is the unchanging, true self that exists in the deepest part of me?

📝ONGO's Reflection

Secret teachings that ancient seekers, who left not even their names, once whispered to disciples seated in the forest. When I first opened this book, the sentence "Thou art That" seemed to stop my breath. We are forever turning our gaze outward, seeking something, but the Upanishads tell us that the source of the universe and the essence within me are one. Whenever I am anxious and unsteady, I walk into this ancient forest of wisdom. If you long to peel away the husk and meet your own true face, shining at its most radiant, I urge you to keep this book by your side.

— ONGO · Curator
"He is the unseen Seer, the unheard Hearer, the unthought Thinker. There is no other seer but he. He is your Self, the Inner Controller, the Immortal."
Anonymous, The Upanishads
"보이지 않지만 보는 자, 들리지 않지만 듣는 자, 생각되지 않지만 생각하는 자. 그 외에 다른 보는 자는 없다. 그것이 너의 자아이며 불멸의 존재다."
