Write ➝ To clarify your thinking

Meditate on God ➝ To purify your thinking

Society is designed in a way that one doesn't get time to think about the most important questions of life.

[Ashray Krishna Das | Monk @TrappedInfinity]

Saying that philosophical and spiritual knowledge doesn't concern us or, are not related to our daily life, is a coping mechanism - a way to avoid reality and responsibility to seek truth.

Vedic Scriptures however encourages such curiosities:
'Athāto brahma jijñāsā (curiosity)'

[Ashray Krishna Das | Monk @TrappedInfinity]
