THE SOURCE OF ALL KNOWLEDGE IS WITHIN YOU

Remember the early tape recorders – huge spools of tape were required to store even an hour of audio recording Then came the cassette , which were very much small compared to the earlier spools and they contained more information in a smaller space – and today we have compact discs (CDs), MP3 discs, iPods and what have you – that contain 1000’s of songs

The same goes for computers. The early computers required a huge room to house just the Central Processing Unit (CPU) – but today supercomputers comparatively require hardly any space and they are handling hundreds of thousands of times the data handled by the earlier computers. In fact your laptop (whose size has now shrunk to the size of an oversized notebook) handles much more data than that of the earlier supercomputers! So the point of the matter is that the grosser the matter the more space it occupies and the lesser information it contains – the finer the matter, the lesser space it occupies and the more information it contains. Thus the DNA (extremely subtle compared to even the cells of our bodies) within each cell contains information regarding generations of the human beings. Thus it is logical to assume that the consciousness within us which is much more subtler (vibrating at much higher frequency) than even the DNA in the cell, will contain much more knowledge. Therefore it is that enlightened human beings (highly evolved souls) who know how to have access to the consciousness within them can have access to all knowledge – everything from the most mundane to the complex mysteries of the Universe which scientists even today are struggling to understand! They do not need to go to schools, colleges, universities to gain high sounding degrees of the world and yet the knowledge hat all these degrees give can be compared to just collecting some random pebbles on the seashore. Compared to that, the consciousness contains information not only of the physical realm and beyond but also they understand the connections between the various branches of knowledge. It contains everything that exists, whether perceivable by our limited senses (and instruments) or not. After all each one of us has at some point in our lives definitely gone through some experiences where one may have seen, read, heard something that one does not consciously remember having seen, read or heard previously – yet there is a sense of déjà vu! At such times probably the consciousness within the person has suddenly remembered something from a very distant past! After all it has everything stored in its deep reserves!

Each one of us has consciousness – which is the same in everybody. If some people can tap into this source so can each one of us – but we are so busy searching for the pebbles in the external world that we have no time to look within us and learn to keep to tap the source of all knowledge which is within each one of us!!!!

I had read somewhere that of all human values - truth and honesty contribute most in bringing about a certain order in life - and I concur with this view. As I read the words they set me thinking that is this not true even in the scientific field! The scientific community expects that experiments should be conducted and reported with complete truth and honesty- and the logically deduced results of the experiments should lead to growth of knowledge - which can then be used for the benefit and overall growth of mankind (although sometimes these are used for destructive and selfish purposes)! A true scientific temperament calls for rational thinking with the spirit of inquiry! But aren't these again the basic fundamentals for anyone wanting to tread the path of spiritualism! So also the great masters and mystics all say that nothing should be accepted unless you think it over for yourself, understand it - rationally, logically and then ultimately experience it! They call it 'chintan' and 'manan' and the end result is 'self-realization'. Progress of science takes place slowly, revealing the mysteries, beauty, symmetry of nature. Man started with 2D, realized 3D and today is aware of 4D space. As science reveals more and more - at some point man will truly understand about all the other dimensions talked about in scriptures. Ultimately, both the scientist and the person on the journey towards self-realization experience a kind of inner strength that keeps them going - because both follow discipline of a similar nature in their lives!!!!!!!!
