The world today operates on an contrived knowledge base. There are far too many blind spots or knowledge gaps that we asked to ignored. There is general reluctance to scrutinize the true workings of the world, and the convenience the 'unknown' provides is exploited to the hilt by creating a free-for-all-thinking realm, resulting in trivialization of pursuit and abandonment. The short-lived bliss of this ideology which we have termed the 'philosophy of ignorance' is that it free you from 'work to secure an unseen future' nevertheless, it sends you packing to your next life and quickly enough, on a suspected negative balance. Perfect knowledge cuts through the quagmire of the contrived knowledge base and presents you with a complete knowledge template of the workings of the world. The protagonist goes through life wholly enjoying its available pleasures and the end, is fully prepared for the next.
Perfect knowledge cannot be sourced from just anywhere. One has to ensure that what is sourced is not a speculative derivative or is compromised in any way. A complete template of Perfect Knowledge is available in a purely philosophical format in the Bhagavad-Gita and is recognized as such all over the world.
Certainly not. What is delineated here is technically called JAIVA DHARMA. Jaiva dharma is the model ‘career graph’ of any and every living entity. Essentially, Jaiva dharma explains who you are. The nonsectarian answer provided is: You are not this body; you are a spiritual being. It is like telling a fish struggling on land, “Hello sir, are you aware that you are a fish; you belong in water, it's best that you find your way to a nice cool pond?” The bit of information should come to us as an answer to all our miseries. Just like a fish suffers terribly being out of water, all our problems can be trace to the fact that we are not in our natural settings. For example: we are primarily pleasure seekers; we incessantly seek pleasure. That is our spiritual nature. Unfortunately, this world is diabolically wired. The pleasures are intentionally enmeshed with all manners of miseries. Thus, in our blind pursuit for pleasure we manage to land 90 % of the time square on misery. Jaiva dharma is a science (often called science of self-realization), at the end of studying this science a serious student will realize: 'I am spirit particle.' This makes him automatically eligible to be elevated to the superior spiritual world (analogous to the cool pond for the fish). This ideology is almost exactly that propounded by the Greek philosopher Plato. Except, instead of fish, he uses the analogy of men trapped in a dark cave and striving to escape into the outside world of light. Those who consider all this an outdated utopian concept, deludes themselves. They ought to ask themselves has death become outdated? As mentioned earlier, everyone is entitled to a sane spiritual perspective of oneself. This sublime process should not be complicated or perverted by political ideologies or touts in the guise of priests and organized religion.
Now, one may not subscribe to all the above ideology at all. Regardless, this is indeed the basis for morality. One does not commit ‘sin’ or ‘do bad’ because it affects ones progress down this path. If one has no use for this pathway, there is no reason why one should practice even the residual morality of that is still practiced in the world. One cannot convince an unbridled world to tone down its unbridled avarice, hatred, desperation etc. |
