People think Self-Knowledge or Brahma or Atma Gnana is very
difficult to achieve or understand. Self-knowledge or Self-Knowledge or Brahma or Atma Gnana which has to be acquired
carefully and gradually, through deeper self-search.
In the past, spirituality was treated not
as a separate subject but as a part of religion, but it is not so. Religious knowledge is
based on the form and Self -Knowledge or Brahma or Atma Gnana is based on formless. Therefore, Self-knowledge or Brahma or Atma Gnana is nothing to do with religion.
Spirituality is a rational inquiry regarding all that is known to exist.
Every one, each to the extent to which one's reasoning power admits, is by
nature free to exercise this faculty, at whatever stage one may be. One is able
to devote himself exclusively to a pursuit of the highest Truth, by means of reason.
In the ancient time, religious, Yogic or
mystic disciplines, which were not an end in itself, considered to be means for
self-realization. But such discipline is almost impossible task for the modern
man to adopt. Day by day modern man is becoming aware of the fact that religion
and yoga are nothing to do with pursuit of truth. .
The modern mindset is pre-eminently scientific
owing to the great progress that science has made. And the best method of
freeing the one from his inaccurate ways of thinking is to imbue him as fully
as possible with the scientific spirit. It is therefore only one who possesses
a clear knowledge of its methods and results i.e., who is able to make reason
the highest means of inquiry that would be fit for Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana .
