independent search after truth

The more we search for ourselves, the less likely we are to find ourselves; and the more we search for God, and to serve our fellow-men, the more profoundly will we become acquainted with ourselves, and the more inwardly assured. This is one of the great spiritual laws of life. 
(From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer, February 18, 1954; Lights of Guidance)
