SAMADI PAD SUTRA -25

                                 TATRA NIRATISHAYAM SARWADNYA BIJAM

THERE (IN THAT ISHWAR) LIES THE SEED OF ALL KNOWLEDGE OF HIGHEST DEGREE.

        In the last SUTRA we were given some qualities of the Ishwara.Now we are told in this Sutra that the Ishwara has knowledge of highest degree. But there is a difference between the knowledge that the human beings have and the one that is mentioned in this sutra.We tend to say that someone is all knowing  or has highest nature . But one can always find out some other person that will be knowing more than this person . Think about it . Issac Newton found out about calculus and found out the Gravity.So certainly he knew a lot and may have been considered 'all knowing'. But I don't think he knew anything about computers . And even He was proved wrong by Einstein on the subject of gravity. So the man will never be  all knowing.He may look like all knowing,  at 'some times' , but not all the times and definitely in all the subjects . This is first difference.
      The second  difference is that when we talk about the 'KNOWLEDGE' , we are talking about this physical world. But when we start talking about the astral world  and the origin of the universe and even beyond this , (as is discussed in this scripture) then all of us are ignorant .There may be some  highly evolved soul, that may know about the the non physical world , but he may nor know much about the physical world. So the Ishwara is the only one who is all knowing  and has the 'highest ' knowledge.
       The third difference is that human beings may know a lot or even everything that is to be known in this and the 'other' world. But the Ishwara is the ORIGIN or the SOURCE of all the knowledge or as mentioned in this Sutra 'seed' of the all knowledge.
