Inner Truth: Reading Divine Truths

Header: 

Author: 

The divine truths are most easily grasped and assimilated when they are passed on directly to the aspirant by a living Master. Such personal communications of the Master have a power and efficacy that can never belong to information received by the aspirant through other sources. The word becomes alive and potent because of the life and personality of the Master. Hence many scriptures emphasise the need for hearing the divine Truths directly through the spoken word of a Master. The mode of general meditation that depends upon hearing expositions of the divine Truths is undoubtedly the best, when the aspirant has an opportunity to contact a living Master and listen to him.

It is not always possible, however, for the aspirant to contact and listen to a living Master. In such cases meditation through reading has some advantages of its own. For the generality of aspirants, meditation through reading has hardly any suitable substitute because it starts from written expositions, which are available at any convenient time. Meditation that startsd with reading about revealed Truths has this special advantage of being easily accessible to most participants.
