Knowledge, Water and Life

"Knowledge=Water, Water always flow from higher surface to lower one... 

Knowledge also flow from Guru(Teacher) to Shishya(Student), 

but Shishya need to lie down to lower surface to turn knowledge flow towards him/her"...Hrc

The basic principle of water is, it always from higher surface to lower one due to gravitational  force of earth.

Your curiosity to learn more is your gravitational force for knowledge.

The knowledge is also like a water. Guru (Source of knowledge) and Shishya (Seeker of knowledge) also works on same principle of water. Guru is always at higher point of knowledge and if seeker want to acquire knowledge, he/she must have to be at lower point to start the flow of knowledge.

The thing which stops us to acquire knowledge is our ego. Our ego says, "I already know this well", this stops acquisition of knowledge. When we are in ego, we feel, we are at higher level but this is misery and it stops us to learn more.

In other case, when Guru want to learn something from Seeker, Guru puts himself/herself at lower level and naturally Seeker goes on higher and flow of knowledge starts from Seeker to Guru indirectly. 

Moral is: "If you want to know more, want to be aware, you must put yourself at lower level (keep aside your ego) and experience the flow of knowledge in you"

This is very basic principle of life to know more,to learn more and to teach more.
