Knowledge & Wisdom

☼ We create gods – and struggle with them.

☼ Suddenly I realized the difference between knowledge and wisdom.

Wisdom is incommunicado. Communicating wisdom always sounds silly to others. You can find knowledge, live in a knowledgeable environment, teach and communicate knowledge – but not wisdom

☼ We are all afraid of death. We are all afraid to die. We tremble inside when we see the flowers droop and wither away. We shudder when we see the leaves fall. In our hearts we know that we too will wither away. We know that our life here is momentary. We know we too will disappear. So we start creating images and devise thoughts and philosophies. We want to retrieve something from death, something that will last longer than us.

☼ Everything in this world comes in a dual format. Up or down, left or right, right or wrong, high or low, man or woman, drifter or steady, thinker or feeler – We cannot do or have both at the same time. We cannot breathe in and breathe out at the same time. We cannot be a man as well as a woman. We cannot experience freedom as well as discipline. We cannot combine instinct and mind. It is always one or the other. But it is true that the one thing is as important and desirable as the other. One cannot do without the other
