The essence of what Prem Rawat is offering people is very simple: the understanding and experience that peace resides within each of us. His approach is heartfelt, practical and easy-to-apply. Self-Knowledge, he explains, begins when a person takes full responsibility for their own well-being and chooses to explore their inner self.
What follows is a four-minute video excerpt from an Understanding More™ focus session he conducted in Milan, Italy on June 24, 2023 on two topics relevant to everyone: the value of breath and the wisdom of the heart.

“Breath is the most valuable thing, but you don’t realize what it is. In the moment you take your last, you will appreciate that all the money in the world, all the power in the world, all the political systems in the world cannot buy you one more breath.”
“When you understand what you have in this beautiful thing called the breath, you will understand how truly rich you are.”
“The coming and going of this breath happens in the now. Do you know how to experience it without going off on a tangent?”
“Some of you are poor from the inside, not the outside. Those who are poor from the inside can only become rich when they see the value of each breath.”
“When you’re looking for wisdom, you will never find it in a book – not even in “Hear Yourself.” Even though I wrote that book, you won’t find wisdom in there. Where will you find it? In your heart!”
“When you know yourself, it doesn’t matter if you know everything else, because you change the core. That’s what Knowledge is about – changing the core.”
“Be yourself. Be the gift you are.”
