जीवन विद्या एक परिचय

It has become evident that the world wants a change, but what change they want was not clear so far. This proposal addresses it. Education alone will result in dissemination of this proposal. There should be provision for humane education in the educational institutions.

We will have to impart the understanding for every person to become evidence of living with justice. We will have to impart study of sentience along with science for this. Unless we understand sentience, we cannot grasp the understanding of existence, and if we don’t understand existence then how will we understand its orderliness. The one who understands existence is jeevan (unit of sentience). Therefore, the study of jeevan has to be incorporated in education. Psychology needs to incorporate the sanskar aspect (understanding) i.e. the aspect of humane consciousness. Humane consciousness is the grandeur of both cognisance and sensitivity. Philosophy should be taught with a realised human as its evidence. On doing so, the way of humaneness will prevail - and not materialism or spiritualism. Therefore, humans can become wise, and existence is always available for understanding.

My realisation about evidence is that it lies in enabling others to understand, learn, and do, as I have understood, learnt, and done. Evidence is necessary in all these three aspects, and there isn’t a fourth aspect to it. It is acceptable if our learning and doing falls short, but understanding must be complete. So far, we have accomplished much in learning and doing, but in terms of understanding we are nowhere. At present, learning and doing are given the highest importance, but this has brought us neither resolution nor relief, and we continue getting stuck somewhere or the other. Therefore, the need has arisen for humans to study the entire existence and gain self-confidence. It becomes natural for humans to demonstrate understanding after study and practice. Humans must verify their understanding through their own study and practice.

The study of humans was left behind in the pursuit of idealism and materialism. In Idealism the deities and God are considered to be above all, and humans got left behind. They sacrificed study of humans in an attempt to understand the deities and God. Materialism too left humans aside, brought machines to the fore by experimentation method, and made machines the basis of evidence. While scriptures, books and literature became the evidence in idealism, the machine became the evidence in materialism. In this way, humans got under-valued, and being trapped in delusion they ended up only furthering that delusion. Thus, being trapped in delusion, led to humans suffering, becoming frustrated, and harassed. Now how will the deliverance of humans come about? All seats of power have been giving such assurances, but there is no evidence of deliverance. How long can it go on like this?
