Do we really know ourselves? Or do we tend to identify ourselves with the roles we play? These were some of the questions addressed during an online talk Know Yourself – Life Beyond the Daily Grind hosted by New Acropolis Pune Branch on Saturday, 29th January 2022. The speaker explored what it means to look beyond our automatic reactions to daily circumstances. The talk suggested that following a philosophical path to practically discover our authentic selves and to live consciously with meaning while fulfilling our various responsibilities, may help us deal with this better.
