Wisdom is the assimilated knowledge in us, gained from an intelligent estimation and close study of our own direct and indirect experience in the world.
– Swami Chinmayananda
For all the problems at the individual, family, social, national or international levels, there is only one solution: Each one of us should change.
When our minds are disturbed, we create chaos all around. When our minds are at peace, there is peace and harmony in the world.
How to make our mind peaceful? It can happen only through right knowledge about ourselves and the world around. Right knowledge brings the vision of oneness. And oneness brings love. Where there is love, all problems vanish. This is the very essence of the scriptures like the Vedas, the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Geeta etc.
