THOUGHT FOR THE DAY - 30 December 2008

Jnana (spiritual wisdom) is the attainment of Oneness, the realization that there is nothing high or low. That is the true Divine Principle, the Brahman. Jnana is the panacea of all ills and troubles. To acquire this Jnana, there are many paths, and the best of these is the path of Bhakti (devotion). As the oil is to the flame in the lamp, so is Bhakti to the flame of Jnana. The heavenly tree of joy of Jnana thrives on the refreshing waters of Bhakti.
