Abstract: The main object of Gyan is to avert pain and sorrow and confer peace and happiness, but, before knowing anything else man should possess true knowledge about his own self. Am I the body or something apart from it, a conscient entity? Who Am I, where have I come from, where have I to go; what is this big game called ‘world’, who is the Creator of it and how am I related to Him and to fellow human beings? Without knowing the answer to these questions, man in his ignorance, does wrong actions as a result of which he suffers pain and peacelessness.
