Theos-Talk Archives (April 1998 Message tt00127)

Wonderfully written.

If any concept is well understood, it is possible to explain it without any
complicated technical terminology or jargon. Don't we all remember how
Einstein explained relativity to his house maid?

Book knowledge cannot but be mechanical. Living the life that is outcome of
the understanding of the knowledge speaks for itself and people around us
do get affected for the good of all.
