-Srimad Bhagavad Gita "Bhagwad Gita 13.11"
Was there ever a more horrible blasphemy than the statement that all the knowledge of God is confined to this or that book?

The knowledge in your mind is immeasurably greater than all that you learnt, in all manner of ways, since birth, as a child, at school, in life, in the world, in your profession. This immeasurable knowledge sometimes percolates into the dream experience; sometimes it comes as intuitive ideas, as creative feelings.

This is true knowledge: to seek the Self as the true end of wisdom always. To seek anything else is ignorance.
