Intellect Is Superior To The Mind
Sraddha Is Superior To Viveka
King Vikramadithya asked another question of his scholars. It was as follows: Sraddha means steadfastness or sincerity, and viveka means wisdom. Of the two, sincerity and wisdom, which is superior?
It is sraddha -- sincerity or steadfastness -- that is superior. Why? Because being sincere, you will never doubt; you will never be negligent or reckless. But wisdom tries to discriminate, distinguish, and differentiate. Sincerity, sraddha, does not differentiate or distinguish. Sraddha has purpose and is one-pointed. Therefore, sraddha is superior to viveka, wisdom.”
