We are progressing but in a wrong direction because we don't know ourself at first.

Translate to Hindi

Praveen, you have put your finger on the exact fault line, progress and direction are not the same axis. But notice the sentence stops right where it gets interesting. Knowing yourself isn't a prerequisite you acquire and then switch on correct direction, it is the very act that was missing in the flood story too, the moment the questioning should have turned onto the one consuming, measuring, wanting more, it got redirected outward onto rivers and glaciers and governments. So the question isn't just that we don't know ourselves, it's watch what happens the instant that question arrives at your own doorstep, where does it usually go instead.
