THE LOTUS WISDOM




The magnificent Lotus flower stems out of a landlocked pond full of intermingling roots of various water
borne creepers and oozes out its natural beauty along with fragrance.


Consequently, Lotus has become symbolic of Wisdom that stems out of a landlocked pond, which is full
of silt, filth and roots of various water borne creepers and their intermingling roots.


Human Mind bearing its intermingled creeping memories and respective roots, represents a landlocked
pond of Self-ignorance.  In this pond, roots of intermingled memories thrive as creepers. Yet with the
Grace of all inclusive Nature, Lotus of Wisdom stems out of it at the appropriate time radiating its innate
aura and fragrance.  


Wisdom is not the  traditional human logic or reason; it is totally unrelated to the Literacy or  Illiteracy
as defined, confined and measured by humans.
instead, Wisdom is a self-stemming Realisation and Revaluation.  


Every human as well as life form is an Immaculate Conception of Nature.  
Each human life ultimately  transforms as a Messiah of its own conscious awareness.  
A self-fulfilled human is manifestation of Life’s own desire to fulfill itself.  
Therefore, it behooves us to respectfully adore each Life form bearing the self- indicative message
of timeless Wisdom.


Wisdom is a Creeper that thrives without any roots. There is a creeper in India that fits this description,
which is appropriately  named the Eternal Creeper - अमर बेल; and sung by a famous Indian Poet named
Saint Kabir.


१९४० , चौथी हिंदी कक्षा में पढ़ा हुवा कबीर का दोहा थोडासा याद आ रहा है :


जाको राखे सांइयाँ, मारन सके ना कोई।  
अमर बेल बिन मूल की, प्रति पालत है ताहि।  
ॐ
