Sifting Wisdom from Knowledge

The gap between knowledge and wisdom is as follows:

Knowledge

• just information

• we remain the same

• not transformative

• borrowed

• repeated

• comes from others

• brings pride and complicates us

• about past

• speculative

• satisfies self

• theories about truth

• forms beliefs of how things are and is not of reality

  
  
  
  

Wisdom

• direct knowing

• reality is directly seen

• transformative

• brings simplicity

• brings innocence

• always about the Present

• opening the treasure of knowing who you are is never born or dies.

• no more identification with roles, perceptions, and views

• we understand that we are empty vessels of experience

• liberating

• eliminates self

• shines the Truth itself

• Wisdom destroys all beliefs

Why bother with all this?

What is the purpose of your life if not to know your essence?

If you see someone wise, follow them. Only a person with greater Consciousness can help you here.
