Finding one’s TrueNorth is the key to unlocking the full potential within oneself. It empowers individuals to navigate their life’s journey with purpose and authenticity, paving the way for pursuing other goals and dreams.

Sankhya philosophy, a foundational concept in Indian thought, explores existence through dualistic principles. It delves into the distinction between matter and consciousness, aiming to unravel the nature of reality. Sankhya elucidates the interplay of elements, guiding seekers toward self-realization.

Three elements and their attributes:

A) Fire connotes action-oriented
B) Air connotes knowledge-driven
C) Water is moved by emotions

Six types of personality:

1) Fire + Air = Action + Knowledge: They first decide the goal and acquire the necessary knowledge.

2) Fire + Water = Action + Emotion: They first decide on the goal and acquire the necessary resources.

3) Air + Fire = Knowledge + Action: They accumulate much knowledge, and based on that, they take action.

4) Air + Water = Knowledge + Emotion: Knowledge is the basis of their empathy/emotion.

5) Water + Fire = Emotion + Action: Emotion or emotional reasons are the basis of their actions.

6) Water + Air = Emotion + Knowledge: Emotion or emotional reasons are the basis of their love for acquiring knowledge.
