The Total Solution to the Total Problem - 17. Swami Krishnananda

I.
But every problem is also a vehicle which carries its own solution.

II.
The idea that there is a problem cannot arise unless there is also in the background the idea that there is a solution.

III.
We cannot have only a problem minus a solution because if it is wholly a problem minus even the possibility of the notion of a solution of it, the idea of it being the problem will not arise in our mind.

IV.
Hence, it is a question which has an answer implanted in the question itself. It is a mother that carries its child in its own bosom, and it is the very place where the treasure of the solution lies.

V.
Man is the source of the problem, and he is also the origin of the solution.

VI.
The knowing of oneself, therefore, seems to be at the same time a knowing of everything that is connected with one’s own self.
