Vedic Wisdom bites 🐒

In Vedic wisdom, everything we experience falls into three categories: Īśvara (the Supreme intelligence), cit (conscious beings like us), and jaḍa (inert matter—everything we use, build, and manage).

As entrepreneurs and creators, we constantly work with jaḍa—systems, money, products—but we ourselves are cit: conscious, choosing, discerning. What makes human life powerful is this ability to choose with awareness. And true alignment begins when our choices are not just driven by matter—but guided by something higher, connected back to Īśvara, the source of all intelligence.That’s where work becomes meaningful, leadership becomes wise, and life feels deeply integrated—not just productive, but purposeful.

Those substances that have no will power are jaḍa. Earth, stone, water, fire, air, sky, house, forest, grain, cloth, the physical body and all such things devoid of will we call jaḍa. Human beings, animals, birds, worms, and insects — these are cetana. They possess the power of discrimination and will power. No other conscious being possesses the power of discrimination, in the same way that human beings do.

For this reason alone, some people say that the human being is the king of all conscious and unconscious entities. But are we using this to our advantage? Are we fulfilling our human destiny? We want to be independent and we don’t want anyone above us. And that’s the whole reason we’re suffering in the material world in the first place.
