Thought for the Day

 

What is Prajnana? Prajnanam Brahma (Consciousness is Brahman). Prajnana is the unchanging and eternal principle, which is in you at all times and under all circumstances. People call it supreme knowledge but the correct translation for this term is Constant-Integrated-Awareness. Just as the air is pervasive, so too is the Constant-Integrated-Awareness. How is it that man is not able to recognise such all-pervasive divinity, which exists in all the three periods of time - past, present and future? Though God is present within, man goes in search of Him thinking that He is present only in a particular place. It is tantamount to somebody going in search of his own self elsewhere. Being verily divine himself, he looks for Him outside.

(translated into Indonesian by Udayo Untarya Wijaya)

 

 

Apakah yang dimaksud dengan Prajnana? Prajnanam Brahma (Consciousness/Kesadaran adalah Brahman). Prajnana merupakan prinsip yang abadi, ia berada di dalam dirimu sepanjang masa dan dalam setiap keadaan. Orang-orang menyebutnya dengan istilah: supreme knowledge (pengetahuan tertinggi), namun sebenarnya terjemahan yang lebih cocok adalah Constant-Integrated-Awareness (kesadaran terintegrasi yang berkesinambungan). Seperti halnya udara yang terdapat di sekeliling kita, maka demikian pula halnya dengan Constant-Integrated-Awareness. Mengapa pula manusia tidak bisa mengenalinya sebagai divinity yang eksis di ketiga masa: dahulu, sekarang dan masa depan? Walaupun sebenarnya Tuhan hadir di dalam dirinya, namun manusia malah masih mencari-cari-Nya sembari mengira bahwa Beliau hanya ada di satu tempat tertentu. Tindakan ini dapat diibaratkan seperti seseorang yang pergi ke segala penjuru dunia untuk mencari-cari dirinya sendiri. Tanpa menyadari sifat keilahian-nya, manusia mencari keberadaan Tuhan di luar sana.
