Gnan Quote by Dada Bhagwan

““Gnan (Knowledge) that is realized and experienced is called ‘Gnan’ [(Real) ‘Knowledge’ (Knowledge with experience of the Self, The Pure Soul)]. Gnan (Knowledge) that is not realized is called agnan, (knowledge with ignorance of the Self). Measure of knowledge is that it is realized.””
