Knowledge v/s Knowing
- Joyfulness: It is the soul’s response to the recognition of its own infinite nature, as highlighted in the timeless wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita.
- Joyfulness arises from within, an inner celebration of being that is independent of life’s transient events.
- Even amidst the cycles of birth and death, joy remains untouched, a beacon of our true self.
- Cultivating joy is the practice of connecting with our essence, beyond the fluctuations of the external world.
- Basic Nature: Our basic nature is the eternal, unchanging self, the same one celebrated in the sacred Bhagavad Gita.
- This intrinsic core is beyond birth, beyond death, a silent observer of the drama of existence.
- To live aligned with our basic nature is to embody calmness and equanimity, whatever the external conditions.
- Our true power lies in recognizing that we are not the temporary roles we play but the timeless consciousness behind them.
- Reflect upon this immutable nature daily to remain centred amidst life’s constant motion.
- Knowledge v/s Knowing: Knowledge is the gathering of facts, while knowing is an intimate connection with the truth of those facts.
- The Bhagavad Gita invites us to look beyond the factual to the realm of deeper understanding – the knowing.
- In the dance of life and death, knowledge observes the steps, but knowing enjoys the dance.
- Apply knowledge as the tool, but let knowing be the guidance that lights the path of wisdom.
- True knowing arises from a place of silence, where the mind ends and the heart begins to see.
