Someone who is learning driving takes joy in the knowledge of driving. Someone who is on a long drive takes joy in the soulful experience of driving. Don't remain stuck in the knowledge. You are here for the experience.

Understand the difference between mystical art and mystical knowldge. Devotional music, life stories of mystics and gods, images, paintings etc. may temporarily transport you to mystical world but they can't give you mystical powers. Art is beautiful. Knowledge is boring. Ancient sages tried to mix art with knowledge. We discarded the knowledge but kept the art.

Suppose you are in your room alone and somebody walks in. Your behaviour changes depending on who is with you in the scene.When we are with others, we are playing different roles. When we are alone, we are preparing, rehearsing and thinking about the roles. We have forgotten who we really are!

If your eyes can see something, is it real? If all your five senses confirm it, is it real? If five billion sets of senses (people) confirm it, is it real?

After a point you have to lose your ideas about gods to meet real gods, you have to lose spiritual knowledge to find the soul, you have to lose everything that can be lost to find that which can't be lost.

There is difference between knowing something and knowing "about" something. To know tea, you have to drink it. To know "about" it, you can google information and write essays or books on it.Tragedy is that most people just want to know "about" God. Those who dare to jump from the boat of knowledge and dive into nothingness are very very few.

Having an opinion on something is not wisdom. Everybody has opinions. Seeing something in its entirety is called wisdom.

More you know things, closer you come to the unknowable. With knowledge, the courage to face the unknowable must also develop. Otherwise you will keep circling within theories and stories to avoid facing Him.

Mind is like a blackboard-cum-door behind which there is a library of infinite knowldge. What is written on the blackboard is actually a distraction that doesn't let you see the door.
