Many names have been given to this Godly
knowledge. Some call this knowledge nectar, and some call it ointment. Guru
Nanak said: When the guru gave the ointment of knowledge… Some have even said
it is the rain of knowledge because the whole world becomes green (new) again
with this knowledge. Tamoguni human beings become satoguni and the darkness is
dispelled with the ointment of knowledge. This knowledge is also called nectar
because human beings who are burning in the fire of the five vices are cooled
down by this.
Look, in the Gita, God clearly says: Those who are lustful and those who are angry…. In that too, the first main vice is lust which is the main seed of the five vices.
When there is the seed, then the tree of anger, greed, attachment and ego etc. grows out of it and people’s intellects become corrupted by it. Now, those same intellects are imbibing knowledge, and only when the intellects have imbibed knowledge fully, does the seed of the vices finish. Sannyasis think that it is very difficult to control the vices, but sannyasis do not have this knowledge.
So, how could they give these teachings? They simply tell others to stay within the time of the codes of conduct. However, what is the real code of conduct? The code of conduct is that which is crossed nowadays. Where are the golden-aged and silver-aged codes of conduct of the deities where they stayed in the household and remained viceless and pure? Where is that real code of conduct now? Nowadays, they observe wrong codes of conduct based on the vices. They just teach one another to stay within the codes of conduct, but they don’t know what the first code of conduct of human beings is. The first code of conduct of human beings is to become viceless. If someone were asked if he was observing this particular code of conduct, he would say: Nowadays, no one in this iron-aged world has the courage to become viceless. Simply to tell someone to observe the code of conduct and become viceless will not make him or her become viceless. In order for them to become viceless, the seed of the five vices first has to be finished with the sword of knowledge for only then will the vices be burnt away. Achcha.
