Query: Why did Albert Einstein not read Bhagavad Gita in so many
years?
Vijay Kumar:
The prime reason why Albert Einstein failed to understand Gita in the
earlier years of his life... every scientist in the world... rather science demands proof. In the system of
God it is absolute faith that rules the roost! Devoid of absolute faith in God almighty and searching for
proofs at every stage of life... most scientists' world over never come to understand Bhagavad
Gita!
Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism... the most sacred of all scriptures existing
on Mother Earth... the doctrine given to mankind by Lord Krishna is without a parallel! This
is the first and only scripture available on Mother Earth that makes it possible for human beings to reach
the stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation (moksha).
Bhagavad Gita can never be understood literally. One needs reading in
between the lines to understand the essence of Wisdom contained in Bhagavad Gita. Mounted with a bloated ego,
wanton desires and greed for materialistic riches most human beings on Mother Earth try reading Bhagavad Gita
literally! They remain wherever they are always and ever!
Bhagavad Gita gives the gist of life for both the ephemeral and the inner
world. Whenever we get stuck in our day-to-day affairs of life it is Bhagavad Gita that comes to our rescue.
Mahatma Gandhi relied on Bhagavad Gita most of the time. In the present times E. Sreedharan the man behind
Metro in New Delhi follows the Sacred Bhagavad Gita considering it sacrosanct!
Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharishi Ramana... both gained
enlightenment in their lifetime by following the Wisdom contained in the Sacred Bhagavad Gita. Both started
in search of God through the path of Bhakti yoga. At a certain stage in life the path of Bhakti yoga finally
merges with the path of jnana yoga!
Truthfully spirituality is much beyond the fold of science. Spirituality
starts from the place where science ends. It is something beyond proofs that paves way to understand the
sacrosanct Bhagavad Gita! And that something is the power of absolute faith (aka Shraddha in
Hinduism).
In the last moments of his life when Albert Einstein realized his
folly... he let go his ego, the search for proofs and Bhagavad Gita started unfurling before him slowly. But
it was too late by then. Albert Einstein had grown old and in spite of all his serious desires and wishes in
the later stages of his life... he could not assimilate the Wisdom of entire Bhagavad Gita!
Albert Einstein throughout his life wanted to follow Bhagavad Gita from
the angle of science. He bitterly failed. Science is necessary for living our day-to-day life. The Sacred
Bhagavad Gita makes us reach our true inner self... our soul atman within! The moment one realizes the truth
of life... one finally gains enlightenment and then salvation!
Albert Einstein is the only scientist in the world who used his brain 4%.
Most human beings never use their brain more than 1%! All enlightened ones use their brain hundred percent!
Albert Einstein was far above normal human beings... other scientists of his era! Whatever little he
deciphered from the Sacred Bhagavad Gita... he felt absolutely elated!
