“And all these explanations explain
nothing”. Is there any point, then, any real benefit, in following through the thin thread of
this tapestry?
In the ultimate sense, words do not explain Truth. But they give a hint by which one can
know Truth directly in experience. Words have a relative value and they must be made use of,
though they do not constitute our real aim. Relative obstructions to the knowledge of Truth can
be removed through relative means and thus the absolute Truth can be realized.
From "May I answer that" by Swami Sivananda (1987-1963). More Informations on Swami Sivananda: on the Website of Divine Life Society, Photographs of Swami Sivananda, German Pages on Swami Sivananda
