48. THE AWAKENING OF A NEW SPIRIT OF RESEARCH

            77. With the inner light which the incarnations and prophets possessed, they could have substantiated the revelations they made by means of arguments, but the time was not ripe for such a course, and beyond the revelations and statements of tenets about the esoteric path and regions, no further attempt was made by them to convince humanity. A change of a very marked character is, however, fast coming now, and the universal demand appears to be that everything should be reduced to practicability and definiteness, and that reasons should be adduced in support of all matters, whether they be temporal or religious. This inquisitiveness of the present age is not antagonistic to spiritual research or pursuit; on the contrary, it requires a presentation of revelation in such a form as would leave no doubt of its acceptance at present and in the future. This universal mood is not accidental, but is the outcome of a craving for a revelation of the highest order, which will confer permanent benefit of the highest degree now and hereafter.

  1. Yes, there is a greater need of a nee spirit of enquiry and research in spiritual matters. The efforts of Dayalbagh in promoting these activities are highly commendable.

    All the very best!

  2. The surge in the spirit of enquiry into higher domains is the will of the Supreme Being as Kaliyug is nearing its end and slowly but surely the creation is marching towards pralaya and the time has come for showing the jivas the path to redemption.
