"Knowing others is wisdom, knowing yourself is enlightenment."__Lao Tzu
This points to the fact that, for most of us, it is much easier to look outside ourselves at others than to look within.
Much is to be gained by knowing what is other than ourselves, but really the ultimate in self realization, on the spiritual path, is when we choose to look within for knowledge and the reality of transcendence and presence.
This is an actual experience and is only gained by self inquiry, over time, as to what is running us ongoing as far as what our beliefs are and what we hold to be true in an ongoing basis.
