Concepts can be learned. We can only learn the false. They are pointers that only find their true value through Self-inquiry. Book knowledge is also likely to be 'co-opted' by the intellect. In other words, one may 'think' that they know conceptually, yet until the Heart is directly realized through Self-inquiry, it only adds up to more reading and learning. Thank you for these pointers, Beloved Harsh, and for sharing. What Beloved Ramana is sharing here is important … as always and is being well supported and truthfully shared by Harsh.
