The saying was above the temple door of Delphi, the Greek oracle. None of the above said it. Nobody knows who inscribed the temple façade. -Original Message- From: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of lurkernomore20002000 Sent: Wednesday, March 21, 2007 11:22 PM To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Fwd: Vedic Verses Installment 46 a deeper meaning her... --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Guru Dev is quoted as saying we must learn to silence the mind in order to KNOW the SELF.

Guru Dev is quoted as saying we must learn to silence the mind in order to KNOW the SELF. Did he say something about Guru Dev having been the first? I must have missed it. -Don't know what you're asking. Calming the mind for knowing the self is straight yoga philosophy. Yoga citta vritti nirodaha.

The Ancient Greek aphorism Know yourself (Greek: ãí#8182;èé óåáõôüí or gnothi seauton) was inscribed in the pronaos (forecourt) of the Temple of Apollo at Delphi - according to the Greek periegetic (travelogue) writer Pausanias (10.24.1). The phrase has been attributed to at least five ancient Greek sages: Chilon of Sparta (Chilon I 63, 25) Thales of Miletus Socrates Pythagoras Solon of Athens Other sources attribute it to Phemonoe, a mythical Greek poetess. In a discussion of moderation and self-awareness, the Roman poet Juvenal quotes the phrase in Greek and states that the precept descended e caelo (from heaven) (Satire 11.27). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Know_thyself
