Ingvar Villido Ishwarananda: “Spiritual practices — the treasure trove of a rational person”

The basis of a person’s daily intelligence is the ability to use consciousness and its qualities. Quick insight and keen discrimination is the hallmark of a rational person. Spirituality seems in this light as something irrational and vague. Yet through the ages, all spiritual teachings have included exercises for honing insightfulness and developing intelligence because the spiritual path is, in fact, the path of human practical wisdom.

The primary tool of mystics and yogis is keen awareness, which helps cast aside all truths and dogmas of the mind. They do not accept anything that is not based on their direct knowledge. Skepticism, disbelief, and sober rationality are part of their spiritual practice. In this way, they discover a vibrant, immediate, and truthful reality that is not distorted by beliefs, prejudices, and emotional attitudes.
