Hinduism - what is a true knowledge or tattvavada ?

religion is law. religion is a code of behavior. religion have so many rules and regulations. religion expects s to maintain highest order of discipline. our hindu religion have roots of veda. so, all are interested to know about veda. interested to know the true knowledge. a curiosity. one can not read all the holy books or vedas in the present days. they have doubts. so, they see R%26amp;S or float or answer questions. mainly to know details and gain knowledge. we can not practice anything without true knowledge. The poet nakkeeran on seeing the 3rd eye of God shiva, never bended or taken side of God, but firm in his stand declaring fault is a fault even if He is God.Hinduism - what is a true knowledge or tattvavada ?
The word ';veda'; means knowledge. The word ';science'; means knowledge. True knowledge is caught by the individual who is ready for it. True knowledge shines within oneself (the real gu-ru is right inside you). Initiation by an external gu-ru is usual, but you are your best friend.





Purusha Suktham repeats twice (for emphasis):


Tamevam vidvan amritha iha bhavathi


Naanya pantha ayanaaya vidyathe





Having known this (this purusha or eternal spirit of solar hue - brilliance) immortality is achieved right here, there is no other path!





Nakkeran's knowledge of dharma is much appreciated. One who stands for dharma ultimately is protected by dharma.





So what is true knowledge - it is knowledge of the truth! The truth that encompasses all and is beyond all!





The goal of religion is to raise oneself. Religions, books, gu-rus etc are guideposts that might even ultimately get transcended (just like a pole vaulter lets go before crossing the barrier). By vivekam (or discerning what is needed) you will find the knowledge you need! The vivekam of nitya-anitya (ability to discern or differentiate between eternal vs ephemeral) is the beginning of true knowledge.

the Lord Narayana, who is an ocean of complete virtues, Who causes the creation, sustenance and destruction of the universe; Who gives knowledge and happiness to the wise (good) and misery to the evil, Who is the kind cause and is beyond complete comprehension.
