ज्ञानं भारः क्रियां विना
dnyanam bharah kriyam vina
- knowledge is a burden without action
Since the day we are born on this earth and come into existence, we are curious to know everything. It is the curiosity in us which makes us to know about new subjects and things. Whatever you gain by understanding and come to know about anything unless it is shared it will be of no use that is the first thing about knowledge. Knowledge becomes a burden if it is not integrated into our life. Gaining knowledge and storing it in our brain can only help in boosting our ego of knowing something. Just by gaining knowledge is one part that is 1%, experiencing it, integrating into your life is the main part that is 100%. Knowledge which is not put into use is of no use.
As we clean our house everyday and throw out things which are not of any use to us likewise we need to clean our brain everyday of its unwanted knowledge which has become a garbage in your brain. It is always better to clean our brain of unwanted and unused knowledge to make it lighter to make the space available for new knowledge which can be useful in our life. Just because you have lot of space in your brain it does not mean that you store everything you come across in your lifetime. Do not treat your brain as dustbin, throwing everything into it, it will get burdened with unnecessary and unused things and gives you a headache. Store only things which enhances your life and makes a difference in your life to make it better. It is always better to have empty space rather than store unnecessary things and make it full. Fullness will only makes you egoistic that you know something and everything.
It is the experience that you gain by putting your knowledge into action that matters a lot in your life. Any experience whether it is good or bad enhances your life and makes you a wiser being. Being wise is more better than being knowledgeable. The more you experience different aspects of your life, the more you become wiser being. Becoming wiser makes your journey of life an effortless and pleasurable experience. It is the wiseness in you which makes you take the appropriate decisions in any kind of situations in life. It is like, studying to get a degree in a particular field is knowledge, getting a job in that field and experience it on a day to day basis will make you more confident in life. Certificates gives you eligibility but experience gives you self confidence. Unless you are confident in your self you cannot achieve anything in life.
It is the feeling you get that you are capable of doing it on your own gives you confidence in life and life becomes a challenge for rest of the lifetime. Anything that becomes a burden restricts your progress in life. Off loading your burden will make life easy and the journey will be effortless. Unless you make your journey of life effortless by becoming wise through experience, it will be boring and a regretful experience. Life will be a joyful experience for the one who is wiser.
Spirituality helps you know your true self by realization in life. It was already there all the time, it is just that you have not realized it. You were focused so externally in your life that you do not know your true self. You did not put any effort to know your true self. Spirituality helps you to realize the essence of your being. Unless you know who you are you will not be able to get clarity on anything in life. It is out of understanding you evolve. Evolution is a process of getting out of the present state. If you come out of your present state then you have evolved yourselves. Spirituality helps you to evolve to be a better human being who is natural to the core. Being natural should be your motto, nothing else will do. Spirituality makes you realize and helps you to regain and retain your naturality.
