WHY HAS SHREE SAMARTH GIVEN UTMOST IMPORTANCE TO THE GODDESS OF KNOWLEDGE


The Goddess of knowledge is nothing but the original Maya. There are two types of ways in which one can look at the world, one is the self oriented and the other one is all pervasive. In the first type one sees himself as something different than the world and hence the world also is a different entity for him. The funny part in this is that both the viewer and the viewed are possessing power although illusory. In the nonliving matter the power manifests itself in the form of fire, electricity, sound, light etc. In the living matter it manifests in the form of life, thought, ideas, lust, longing etc. Although the ill knowledgeable can see the work being done through all these manifestations of power he can’t see the power itself because he is blind to it as he is a follower of hypothesis of dual existence of the Atman and the body. Those who follow the hypothesis of single existence are able to see it as they know that this power is nothing but yet another form of the Goddess of knowledge which is the cause of the existence of this universe. She exists in all the living and the non living and gets the work done. When one tries to get over all this and starts the pursuit of the real knowledge he reaches a certain stage where he has to forget that he is in existence otherwise his pursuit stops and ends. At this precise time the Goddess of knowledge herself helps that person in his pursuit. This is experienced by all of those who really get after the real knowledge. Spiritualism is in fact a play of the Goddess of knowledge. She helps the disciple during all the problems in the form of the Guru. Keeping her in mind at all the times is the life of Sadhana. She takes care of the saints like their mother and that is why the saints are so fearless. She is the continuous source of energy for them. Hanuman is the live form of the power of Lord Ram and that is why in all the aspects of the life of Shree Samarth, Hanuman occupies a special place. Shree Samarth is considered to be a reincarnation of Hanuman and by this very fact we should be able to gauge the power of Shree Samarth.
