Pursuing spiritual knowledge literally is what humanity is indulging in present times. I took a whirlwind of world totaling 40 days in 1985. I only wanted to assess the mental capability of human beings world over. I went empty-handed and returned empty-handed. I covered many countries of Europe, United States of America and Canada. Not a single person I met in the whole tour knew anything about spirituality. In my life journey of 60 years I have yet to come across a person who could detail to me correct definition of spirituality. All were trying to read scriptures literally, gaining nothing out of it.
The so-called spiritual masters were simple religious preachers knowing nothing about spirituality. Mahavira (24th Tirthankara of Jainism), preceptor rightly said; do not preach anything unless you become an enlightened one. And there is no limit to religious teachers teaching so-called spiritual theories to gullible mankind. Neither the teacher indulged in path of jnana yoga (absolute wisdom), nor were masses interested in knowing the truth. The spiritual journey of life just continued meaninglessly.
My reading indicates in the last about 150 years only two enlightened souls Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharishi Ramana tread on mother earth. There was never a third soul. Despite this I receive many queries contradicting my approach but to what avail.
I went in search of God six years of age and at 37 I finally reached God. My spiritual journey is already over. I have nothing to gain further. Moment I leave my mortal frame I shall attain moksha salvation.
Indulging in scriptures literally would never help mankind at any stage of life. In such circumstances how could we expect more and more enlightened souls manifesting on mother earth?
