Spiritual enlightenment is more important than intelligence. People we admire were more spiritually enlightened than others. And spiritual enlightenment comes from work. The lessons learned from the experience. Because experience is what makes a person well educated. It is a great teacher. The more experienced a person is, the better he is as a human being. Many people we see around are just cogs. The ultimate goal of an individual must be spiritual enlightenment through his work. In order to do it, he must cultivate experience throughout his life.
Any man engaged in any work is on the journey of self-discovery. With every flaw and good, he is discovering himself. Uncovering each slice of enlightenment. It doesn’t require being lonely meditating for years for self-realisation. Any work when done mindfully leads to self-realisation, the ultimate goal of an individual. What we see around is otherwise and people aren’t mindful enough to understand themself.
Swami Vivekananda says in Karma yoga that spiritual knowledge should be prioritized as foremost. Then follow intellectual and physical. Because once we attain spiritual knowledge, we longer be miserable. Spiritual enlightenment can be achieved by selfless service, mindfulness work, and being gentle and kind at any situation.
