Knowledge

The fire of true knowledge reduces to ashes the sins, the pious deeds and the Karmas. Through the knowledge and conquest of Panchekarana (the five elements) we attain self realisation. The one who is devoted to Duty, mastering the senses objects, the Bliss in the self is revealed to him. When the mind is controlled and shuns all sense objects, the Bliss in the self is revealed to you. The welfare of society is based on sacrifice. The giving of knowledge is the best sacrifice.
  • The End of Wisdom is Freedom.
  • The End of Culture is Perfection.
  • The End of Education is Character.
  • The End of Knowledge is Love.
Mere book learning leads the aspirant nowhere, whereas the intuitive knowledge makes him consonant with the Reality and the dream and the delusion of the earth-bound life is transcended.
Rarely do we see 'Siddhis' being employed for the spritual benefit of humanity. Do not hanker after miracles or the Siddhis which yield them. Divert your efforts towards obtaining self knowledge - 'Atma Gnana' - which alone is real and eternal.

It has been declared "Sraddhaavaan Babhate Gnaanam" which means the one who is devoted to duty, mastering the senses atains knowledge. A true student does not care for fame or comfort or power. He cares only for knowledge and truth. He purchases truth by giving up everything, for he looks upon his pursuit as the noblest duty of man. Man has to know his personality.

True knowledge makes his life fruitful. It emancipates man. Knowledge is a potential instrument which enlarges our intellectual horizon while at the same time it projects an authentic and faithful picture of our Self. The greatest gift is the gift of knowledge. Wisdom removes false ideas of multiplicity and realises the unity of the Self.
