The Knowledge of the world around, the knowledge of self, the knowledge
of interaction of the self with the world is the basic division of knowledge.
All this comprises of the knowledge of life. I would love to minimize my
explanation of the knowledge and intellectual understanding of it and initiate
into the process of finding this knowledge called Life. Life of Human, is it
just from the day we were born to the
day we die, is it just the family and society the human lives in this world,
the mysteries and chemistries of the world, the nature around it and the
coexistence with it or Life of Human, is the question of where it came from,
where I am travelling towards, what is beyond death, who created me, why was I
created. Life is a beautiful abstract created or evolved as you want to call it
based on your beliefs. Or if you are a seeker know from Life itself. Like I
always try to know from life itself. How do we reach to this knowledge. Finding
and observing life. Life in me is proved by the breathe that came inside me and
stays until I die. The knowledge of my life is hidden in that breathing method.
The mind, Intellect, the soul, Intelligence and the body, physical being has so
much knowledge hidden inside it. There are different methods to know yourself
logicians would want to cut open and see the working of it, seekers just go
inside through contemplation and believers turn towards god for answers.Human
is all in one logician, seeker and believer. Scientists, Artists and Saintly
people reach out to their complete potential to reach to this knowledge. A
scientist is definitely a seeker and a believer, an artist is definitely a
logician and a believer and a saint is definitely a seeker and a logician. So
every human is a polymath in his complete potential.
I would love to share a
story as through stories I have learnt to express my knowledge of everything. I
was sitting in my balcony one day and was observing around when I saw the pot in my green garden giving a glow of
yellow. I was so happy to observe the plant I was watering for last one week
has given a bud of flower. I just admired it's beauty and could see the thorns
around it giving the flower a path to grow. I just sat there and philosophized
the happening. I was keen to see what this plant was going to teach me in next
few days. I was observant every day. Two days passed and the flower had fully
grown and was spreading it's fragrance around. I was also one of its
benefactors. Two more days passed and it slowly started withering. I was sad
for its passing away. I could see how the flower has grown and done its job and
was slowly dying. Next day morning when I woke up I saw another bud blooming
and I was happy again for that bud has arrived but there was also a tinge of
pain for the old flowers falling down. It fell into the mud and started drying.
I was happy for the new flower and momentarily the old flowers passing away
gave me a slight worry. But when it fell and started drying in the mud it came
from I could visualize its purpose fulfilled. If the garden would have been
public there would have been multiple people learning from it. Then in few days
the other flowered withered too and in its place few new leaves started merging
with a hope that there will be more flowers.
As a
philosopher, artist or storyteller I was able to see one kind of knowledge
emerging out of a life. Similarly if other kind of observers see the same life
they would come up with their versions of knowledge, botany in it, morphology,
aromachology, and what not.
I admire the way life teaches
different people differently so everything we learn is a part of life's
teachings. Experiences, Circumstances, Choices, Decisions, Social
Responsibility, Birth and Death, War and Peace, Evil and Good, Sadness and Joy,
Greed and Satisfaction etc. The Life has made me one kind and I would become
what my heart likes, what god likes, what my moral being accepts. What are you?
How are you dealing with your life and it's challenges, how is life treating
you, what has it taught you, why not learn life from teachers and guides who
know it better than you. Life is one book which has all knowledge. To know it
let us learn from different teachers and give our life our own meaning which
will fulfill our purpose of existence. And while doing all this one thing that
I remind you from my life's teachings, "Never hurt a heart, that is where
love resides and love is god, love is discoverable truth, love is infinite
art."
"Ishq
hai dil ki dhadkan wo zindagi hai, wo lamhdud fan wahi haq wo bandagi
hai."
