Gnōthi seauton („Poznaj siebie”) – napis nad portykiem świątyni Apollina w Delfach

 

„Now, since it has been said that you are my twin and true companion, examine yourself, and learn who you are, in what way you exist, and how you will come to be… And I know that you have understood, because you had already understood that I am the knowledge of the truth. So while you accompany me, although you are uncomprehending, you have (in fact) already come to know, and you will be called ‚the one who knows himself’. For he who has not known himself has known nothing, but he who has known himself has at the same time already achieved knowledge about the depth of the all”.

The Book of Thomas The Contender (ca. year 170 A.D.), Coptic Gnostic Library Project UNESCO
