Guest guest Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 Dynamic Moments of Spiritual Reflection Amidst the din and boisterous bustle of worldly activities, there come moments of tranquillity and peace, when the mind for the time being, however short it may be, soars above the filthy worldly things and reflects on the higher problems of life, viz., “Whence? Where? Whither? Why of the universe? Who am I?†The sincere enquirer becomes serious and extends his reflections. He begins to search and understand the Truth. Discrimination dawns on him. He seeks Vairagya, concentration, meditation and purification of the mind and body and eventually attains the highest knowledge of the Self. Direct Perception and Conceptual Activity Intuition is immediate knowledge in contrast with mediate knowledge. Intuition is the only way by which the Absolute can be realised and experienced in all its totality and integrality. These mortal limited senses and the finite intellect cannot comprehend the all-pervading Reality. Reason can give you only conceptual knowledge and conceptual knowledge does not give you the knowledge of the Reality in its whole, in its totality, but it divides, fragmentises and breaks things into pieces.
