Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 4, Verse 34

Know that, by prostrating yourself, by questions, and by service; the wise, those who have realised the Truth, will instruct you in that knowledge.

Some things aren't meant to be figured out alone, they're meant to be learned from someone who's actually already there.

This is a real, practical instruction, not just a spiritual ideal. Genuine understanding here comes through real relationship, real humility, and real willingness to learn from someone who has actually seen what's being described, not through working it out in isolation.
