The Essence of Spiritual Wisdom
Swami Bhoomananda Tirtha
Swamiji tells us that spiritual wisdom eliminates the kartritva (doership) and Bhoktritva (enjoyership) . It takes away the deep-rooted feeling of ‘I am the doer, sufferer and enjoyer.’ Wisdom acts inwardly and takes away this egocentric feeling from the personality.
A knower of Truth understands and realizes that while all sensory organs, mind, and intelligence are working, there is no activity, no experience in the ‘I’ level. When this spiritual wisdom graces a seeker, it terminates all his sufferings.
A wise person moves in this world performing all activities, but in the inner level of his personality he is a non-doer, non-sufferer, and non-enjoyer. Spiritual wisdom works inwardly bringing about changes automatically. The individual and family-centric personality gives way to expansion and universality. A new assessment dawns and wisdom works on the mind and intelligence.
Shlokas chanted in the Track:
नैव किञ्चित् करोमीति युक्तो मन्येत तत्त्ववित् ।
पश्यन् शृण्वन् स्पृशन् जिघ्रन्नश्नन् गच्छन् स्वपन् श्वसन् ।।
प्रलपन् विसृजन् गृह्णन्नुन्मिषन्निमिषन्नपि ।
इन्द्रियाणीन्द्रियार्थेषु वर्तन्त इति धारयन् ।।
Bhagavad Gita 5.8-5.9
यस्त्वात्मरतिरेव स्यादात्मतृप्तश्च मानवः ।
आत्मन्येव च सन्तुष्टस्तस्य कार्यं न विद्यते ।।
नैव तस्य कृतेनार्थो नाकृतेनेह कश्चन ।
न चास्य सर्वभूतेषु कश्चिदर्थव्यपाश्रयः ।।
Bhagavad Gita 3.17-3.18
