“knowledge depends on the mode of the knower”

“What do the Vitraag Lords say? “I am Chandulal” is a Gneya (that which is to be known) yet one believes himself to be the knower. When the knower comes into the ‘Knowing state (gnata padh) and that which is to be known, comes into the ‘state of being known (gneya padh)’, ‘we’ will call him ‘Jitendriya-Jin’.”

“Some people claim, ‘I am the Knower-Seer (Gnata-Drashta)’. Hey! What do you mean you are ‘Knower-Seer’? ‘You’ are still ‘Chandubhai’? The Knower-Seer state begins after one realizes the Self, after one attains the awareness of the Self [the soul].”

“The Knower of the Soul is considered Self Realized (The Enlightened one). The knower of all the eternal elements is known as Omniscient (sarvagna).”

“The motive that impels modern reason to know must be described as the desire to conquer and dominate. For the Greek philosophers and the Fathers of the church, knowing meant something different: it meant knowing in wonder. By knowing or perceiving one participates in the life of the other. Here knowing does not transform the counterpart into the property of the knower; the knower does not appropriate what he knows. On the contrary, he is transformed through sympathy, becoming a participant in what he perceives.”

“Never during its pilgrimage is the human spirit completely adrift and alone. From start to finish its nucleus is the Atman, the god-within... underlying its whirlpool of transient feelings, emotions, and delusions is the self-luminous, abiding point of the transpersonal god. As the sun lights the world even when cloud-covered, “the Immutable is never seen but is the Witness; it is never heard but is the Hearer; it is never thought but is the Thinker; it is never known but is the Knower. There is no other witness but This, no other knower but This." from the Upanishad”

“God is the Knower and not the sufferer of pain.”

“21st century leaders will be growers, not knowers.”

“The Knower of ‘taste’ is the Soul. The enjoyer of 'taste' is not the Soul.”
