The strange and redeeming feature of our rather mad world we live in is that somehow so many of the young today, perhaps the not-so-young too, are being led to the threshold of this beautiful spiritual perception: that we can only fully know when we are fully known. We can only be fully known when we leave self behind and allow the other to know us. It is only in allowing ourselves to be known, that we fully know - the central words of the message of Jesus that he who would find his life must lose it.
