Why Rishis And Sages Are Depicted In Less Clothes …??



Rishis, Sages or intellectual people of the past are depicted with simple clothes without any crown or jewelry or makeup. Some carry just one piece of clothe on their body. They carry very less luggage with them. They do not believe in possessing the material stuffs. However, even in this material world, they are highly revered.

Why so…???

They are revered, not because of their material wealth, but because of their wealth of wisdom they have. Their knowledge and wisdom is their real crown. The aura in their image is the sign of their enlightenment. Their illuminating face is as radiant as jewelry.

They do not need to carry any luggage, their knowledge and wisdom are their luggage, wherever, they go they carry their knowledge and wisdom. Unnecessary, they don't burden themselves with unnecessary decaying worldly stuffs which exhaust the journey of life.

The wealth of knowledge and wisdom never decay and exhaust. The light of their knowledge and wisdom illuminates the world, even after the death of their physical body. That is why, we say enlightened beings do not die, they remain immortal. Whenever we talk about those people, we do not talk about the construct of their body rather the content of knowledge and wisdom they shed out to the world for its betterment.

Their recognition is not because of their physical appearance, rather because of their content of character and wealth of wisdom.

Less clothes indicate that they are so true and pure that there is nothing to be hid. They are equal from both inside and outside.
