Wisdom is not about knowing all the answers.
No one
has all the answers.
Wisdom is about
asking the right questions and seeking the right answers.
Life is always
filled with unanswered questions. It takes courage and humility to ask
questions.
Great people ask
great questions. If Arjuna had not asked so many questions, there would not
have been any " Bhagavd Gita " Today.
Guru Granth Sahib is
full of such intelligent questions and the answers by the Gurus to guide the
humanity.
Lord Buddha did not
stop asking until he got the answers thru his own experience.
Goswami Tulasi Das,
in his Ramaayana (Ram Charit Maanas ) has presented numerous people /
characters such as Lakshman, Garuda, Sugreeva and Shabree, including Devi
Parvati and many other sages asking questions about Gyaana & Bhakti,
(enlightenment and Devotion) and the answers provided by Guru Vashishta,
KaagBhushundi, Lord Shiva and Lord Rama himself among others.
Ask ... not for the sake of argument, but to learn.
To gain
wisdom, seek the right answers from the right teachers by asking the right
questions with genuine intention.
"Tad viddhi pranipatena pariprashnena sevaya
upadeksyanti te jnanam jnaninas tattva-darshinah" (Gita 4: 34)
upadeksyanti te jnanam jnaninas tattva-darshinah" (Gita 4: 34)
"This
knowledge should be learned from a spiritual master by submissive inquiry and
rendering service to him.
The self-realized
/ enlightened saint will instruct you in that wisdom. "
(Bhagavad Gita 4: 34)
"Rajan Sachdeva"
