Our human views about wisdom and
knowledge
Dear readers, this post is the continuation of our
last post, first religious meeting, where we ended up by saying that we would
talk about wisdom and knowledge, so, let us talk about it. During our lives,
many issues arise and some of them are easy to solve, some others issues are
not that easy to solve; for instance, today we would like to solve these
religious problems that exist in the world, just because we see and believe
that there are religious problems; so, how do we go about to solve them? First
of all, we look at these religious issues and try to work out a solution, we
see that these religious issues are also spiritual circumstances for all the
people involved in them, therefore we have to be very careful here as they are
not easy to solve; the only thing that we can do here is use our wisdom to sort
these things out, if we happen to have any wisdom. Now let us explain wisdom: Wisdom
is the mental capacity of a wise person, whom when confronted with a problem is
able to solve it better than the average person.
Now, let us explain wisdom the way we see it;
wisdom of a single person is usually an accumulated knowledge of all those events
that this person has lived during his/her life; therefore, this wise person is
capable somehow of using this accumulated knowledge for his own advantage, or
for helping other people; therefore, when a problem arises this wise person
would be able to solve the problems better than the other people around
him/her.
It is not known why one wise person becomes wiser
than somebody else, even though they might have lived most of the same events
together, so, we may have to guess at the reasons why, so, let us say that some
people are better able to assimilate their accumulated knowledge, perhaps by storing it at the highest level in
their own mind and when the need arises they would be able to use this
accumulated knowledge to their advantage.
Since wisdom (accumulated knowledge) may be stored
at one level higher that just logic reasoning, so, it may seem and feel like a
sixth sense to the wise man that has it. The wise man knowing what he should do
by this intuition of his sixth sense, he also uses logic reasoning just to make
sure that everything is all right, this way he is able to back up his wisdom.
Of course there are other possibilities also, so we
better mention something about this, some people believe that there is also a
small possibility that the wise person may be able to tune into the cosmos, or
the spiritual life force of the universe which is thought that it may be able
to store the entire accumulated knowledge of everything in the entire universe
just like God, this thought of course gives rise to this question.
Is the cosmos an integral part of God of the
universe? Well it may be part of God.
But here we are talking about wisdom and not God.
So the definition of wisdom and where it comes from might still remain a
mystery to most of us, but that does not matter because we can use wisdom our
accumulated knowledge to achieve our goals. Therefore, we are going to use our
accumulated knowledge, which together with our logic reasoning may be able to
come close to achieve what we want to achieve today. And as I have said before,
it seems to me that now the time has come for us to do something about it, I
see it is about time and you may see it also that there is a time for
everything and now is the right time, so let us try and see what needs to be
done, and let us study what is around us first, so that we may understand
better the situation, we are in, before we do unnecessary things that could
make the situation even worse, but anyhow it seems to me that the time has come
for us to do something about these religious beliefs that seem to lead the
people into a harmful situation these days.
I believe that we have already said enough in this
post, so we will continue to talk about there is a time for everything in our
next post.
See you soon.
