WHAT DO WE REALLY KNOW?

It is shocking how little we know. How can anyone presume to tell anyone else what they should know? We, who cannot fathom the word ete
al, always was and always will be, seem to be locked into our limited views. How about the word infinite? Picture what it is like when you get to the end of the billions of galaxies and find a wall with a sign that says “This is the End.” Peek over the wall and you can see forever and ever and...well, you know what I am saying.
OK, now look at it the other way. An atom is small, really small, but there is always something smaller, infinitely smaller. Even I cannot fathom what I am saying, but it is what it is. All I can say on my behalf is that I have a tiny glimmering of what I don’t know. I am totally humbled by my ignorance.
Starting from “I don’t know” we are teachable. Starting from the frame of reference of how smart or educated we are leaves us too busy proving our imagined greatness to learn of the awesome vastness of the unspoken, unseen and breathtaking unknown.
You’ve Seen and Felt what I'm about to say. You are much more than you think you are. You have psychic communication skills you are not using. You can feel another person at a distance. The following example is an eye-opener: You are at a convention with your companion. Your meeting is over and he is still involved, so off you wander. You find an empty conference room, sit in the middle of this dark room with your back to the door, heave a great sigh, and kick back to relax in the quietude. Off you go into deep thought and the world disappears.
Meanwhile, your companion, who has finished his meeting, is looking for you. He passes the empty meeting room where you are “by chance” (as if coincidences were accidents instead of things that perfectly co-incide) and he peeks in. He is glaring at your back in the dark, but isn’t sure if it is you or someone else. You are not able to see him. You are not able to hear him. He is not touching you. Of course, your last two physical senses, smell and taste are not being engaged either. All five physical senses are unaware that you are not alone. As sure as I am writing this story, you know what happens next. Why? You know because you have experienced this too many times to doubt.
You can FEEL someone staring at you and turn to see who is there.
The implications are enormous! -You are not limited to the definition of matter you were taught since childhood. -You are so much more than you realize! -Your senses extend beyond your body!
A mother senses that her child, in another location, is in danger and rushes there just in time to save the child. You think about someone whom you haven’t heard from in a very long time and the phone rings—want to guess who is on the line?
These happenings occur continually! There is part of you that can perceive beyond the five physical senses because there is an entire Universe that exists beyond our illusory physical perceptions.
Why do people dismiss these implications? Why do they take them for granted?
The Universe is calling you to WAKE UP AND TAKE NOTICE!!! This time don’t shrug it off and walk away. This time accept your responsibility and “Turn aside to see the wonder.”

If the world is an illusion meant to be transcended, why does it exist at all?
To answer your question, letâs study the following words of Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan, an Enlightened being, very carefully. He says: âThis puzzle has come about on its own, governed by the laws of science. I am telling you that this world is run only by Scientific Circumstantial Evidences. In Gujarati, I call it 'Vyavasthit Shakti'... It is all run by scientific circumstantial evidences. The whole world is run by this energy. These words are not easy to understand, unless
