Q:
Gurudev, is it possible to raise our awareness to that level where we know all
things at all times?
Sri
Sri Ravi Shankar:
A
lawyer has so many books on his shelf that he has studied, he doesn’t have to
keep everything in his head. Whenever he needs any information, he picks up
that book, isn’t it? Similarly, suppose you are a mathematics professor, you
don’t have to keep all the formulae in your memory all the time. When you want
Trigonometry or Algebra, at that time you take it; you only focus your
attention and pick that knowledge with the memory. It is the same thing with
knowledge. All knowledge is available as a possibility, but it depends on our
ability to pick what we can. In order to do this, you need to have the ability
for intellectual analysis and intuition.
Intuitive
ability will help you get access to subjects which you have not intellectually
acquired. For every innovation, you need both (intellect and intuition). It is
not enough if you have just studied, and have intellectual abilities. For
innovation, you need an intuitive insight as well. That intuitive insight comes
when you empty your mind a few times every day.
