A true seeker
is a scientist of inner worked. He has to research on his own to find the
presence of the true divine within, to realize the highest form of peaceful
happiness within. One cannot be just dependent on the research performed by
others or just read thesis written by others for the art of inner exploration.
Learning from other’s experiences will help you, but totally relying on the
experience on others won’t bring you closer to your own real Self. Inner divine
exploration is more of an art rather than science. But it is very logical in
nature and hence referred to as science also.
A master
observed that a disciple has a lot of potential, but he is always engaged in
reading scriptures, memorizing the hymns from the holy books and trying to
impress others by rephrasing the knowledge that he gained from other sources.
He observed that disciple is hardly spending any time in seclusion, sitting in
meditation and performing Self analysis. Out of compassion, one morning master
called the disciple to his room and said, “Son, sit here close to me. I want to
tell you a story.”
