Today’s world includes innumerable interesting gadgets such as fitness bands, toolkits, bluetooth FM transmitter, knife sharpeners, vegetable slicers. We know that these gadgets solve a specific function. They excite us because we can now do the same things more efficiently and/or quickly.
Some gadgets transmit signals allowing us to hear and see things despite being thousands of miles away in distance. These include movie technology, radio wave transmitters, video enabled ports, devices. Some allow us to see things in someone’s mind in a format that allows professionals to read and analyze. There is no limit to these, however the question is…
Are we making use of an inbuilt essential gadget called jna:na, knowledge, to its fullest potential?
Jna:na, knowledge is the most powerful gadget that is inbuilt within everyone of us. Each of us is equipped with knowledge that can eternally free us from any kind of limitations of the body we are all currently in. What you see in the mirror is your body. Underneath the body, there is you (the soul) and you are given an opportunity to use this ultimate gadget called jna:na.
What does this gadget do?
The gadget called jna:na works through guru’s teachings and unveils the ultimate reality, God by letting you see clearly through your life. A guru’s jna:na is an outpour of jna:na received by his guru in a lineage, the scriptures.
I know God exists everywhere, is that all the jna:na gadget tells??
If you are a sincere seeker with genuine interest in learning and using the jna:na gadget properly, God ‘s grace will enable you to learn and you will…
- know the purpose of your existence and act accordingly
- know what to do, what not to do
- know why should something be done in one way and not the other way
- know how to make decisions that do not tamper with your purpose in life
- know how to stay focused and attain any goal you may set
- know to live better, not just live
- know why you need a temple when God exists everywhere
- know what it means to serve God
- know the difference between you and God
- and answers to anything …
- in the heart
- in the temple
- in me when I help others and in others when they help me
- everywhere
As Swamiji explained how God can be realized, the difference between temple and home, and how to respond when and where there is a need, the children along with adults have all felt enthused and extremely grateful. Their jna:na gadget has now recharged from Guru’s teachings.
