Only one thing: look for the Self. Search for the self. Discover the self. Nothing else basically matters. And this self is sitting in our body." Vishwaguruji introduces Swami Premanandaji, who delivers a discourse in English and German. Using the Bhagavad Gita's chariot allegory, he explains the body as a vehicle governed by the senses and mind, driven by the intellect, with the soul as the passenger.
