What is true knowledge?

It is knowing who you are, what you are in this earth for, where you are going and how you can get there

Life will not be meaningful unless we know and understand what our reasons are for being in this world

WHO AM I?WHAT ARE MY QUALITIES?WHAT HAVE I ACCOMPLISHED SO FAR?WHAT ARE MY STRENGTHS? WEAKNESSES?HOW GOOD HAVE I BEEN TO MYSELF, TO MY PARENTS,BROTHERS,SISTERS,RELATIVES AND FRIENDS?TO WHOM DO I OWE MY LIFE, MY SUCCESS AND MY FAILURES?WHAT DO I WANT TO ACHIEVE I N THE NEAR AND FAR FUTURE?

*Let us therefore pause for some moments and reflect on our life. Recall mentally your past and ask yourself the following questions turn to next slide.*
