Quote of the day by Adi Shankaracharya: “To be free from bondage the wise person must practise discrimination between One-Self and the ego-self. By that alone you will become…” What the philosopher and monk advised on recognising your true self

Our sense of self often relies on external factors and societal roles. Adi Shankaracharya taught that true happiness comes from understanding our inner being. He advised practicing discrimination between the permanent Self and the temporary ego. The ego is built from our body, mind, and possessions, leading to distress. Recognizing the One-Self as Pure Being brings steady inner peace and joy.
