WISDOM IS THE RENDERING OF KNOWLEDGE
Wisdom is the rendering of Knowledge. When wisdom is
used as if it is the effect -- as indirect experience;
then we are in beta state conscious and acting as
humanoids. When Knowledge employs wisdom through
ceremony; ceremony produces the direct experience of
wisdom. It takes wisdom to give to the next
generation the experience of Knowledge. Without
wisdom passing from generation to generation there can
be no phenomena called human beings. Without wisdom,
we cannot answer the question “What Does It mean to Be
a Human Being?”
To answer this question, focus more on the question
than on the answer. The power of a question exists,
not so much in the answer, but in the state of
consciousness that opens it. By asking a question we
let go of thinking we ‘know’ the answer. The act of
letting go is an important as the answer. Information
is not knowledge. Learning is not knowing. No answer
is the final one,; in fact, answers condense as our
knowledge of the world expands.
