Knowledge is Endless
Knowledge is an endless flow called Vidyā or Saraswatī. This learning is inherent in consciousness and constantly moves forward like a river. Humans are on this path of Vidyā, which has no end, so one must not stop. All actions, even sweeping, constitute Vidyā when done without ego. The ego is an obstruction to this flow. Languages are diverse, yet they converge into oneness like clouds. Complete alphabets, like the 52 letters of Devanagari, relate to the brain's hemispheres and the body's chakras. The Kuṇḍalinī Śakti ascends through eight centers: Mūlādhāra, Svādhiṣṭhāna, Maṇipūra, Anāhata, Viśuddhi, Ājñā, Bindu, and Sahasrāra. The resonance of mantra Oṁ travels from the navel to the crown. This is Kriyā Śakti, the power in action. True knowledge encompasses purity, intellect, and wisdom, represented by Saraswatī, who is beyond even the trinity of Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva. Without reverence for this knowledge, one lives without direction.
"Vidyā is not only something you need to learn and read again from what you have learned. It is in your consciousness, in your mind, in your thoughts, in your feelings."
"Those who have purity, intellect, and knowledge, then you are perfect always, no problem. Otherwise, we are like animals."
