Abstract
1.Child has ignorance and innocence.
2.As he grows old knowledge removes ignorance and innocence is lost.
3.Great people continue to have innocence.
4.Knowledge becomes wisdom when innocence is maintained with it.
5.With loss of innocence, knowledge becomes arrogance. Arrogance of knowledge is poison.
6.Innocence with knowledge becomes Jnana Yoga when it leads to peace of mind. Being ‘child like’ is way to peace.
7.Ramakrishna and Swami Vivekananda were saints with child like innocence.
8.Bhagavad Geeta is beyond good or bad. It talks about being humble to receive knowledge.
9.Questioning to teacher should be humble rather than debating with view to make someone agree to your knowledge.
10.Questioning, serving teacher and surrender are qualities required in Jnana Yoga.
