When a man is born into this world, he is
like iron ore, raw in form. Nature has produced him like ore, and he has to
develop himself on his own. Nature produces ore; man has to convert it into
steel.
In this process of development,
intellectual development is of the utmost importance. In developing one’s
personality, the most important thing is for man to broaden his mind by
awakening his consciousness. To awaken
one’s consciousness, three things are required – study, observation and
intellectual exchange with other people. Books are the greatest source of
knowledge, and studying them is always beneficial. The world of nature is the
greatest source of observation. And in the matter of intellectual learning, it
is essential for man to form the habit of learning from others, and continue in
this learning process.
In the case of married people, they are
each other’s immediate intellectual partners. From this point of view, marriage
is a great opportunity for intellectual development, as both can interact with
each other and make progress together intellectually. Intellectual development
is essential for everyone. Marriage offers an ideal opportunity for
intellectual partners, who are always available for each other, to commune,
with one another. And to be successful in this venture there is one condition –
that is, to give intellectual development top priority and to make it a part of
one’s daily life.
