Wisdom - The Wise Person |
Posted: December 12, 2020 |
The wisdom, sagacity, or sapience is the capacity to act and think using knowledge, insights, experience, intuition and wisdom. Wisdom is also related to traits like honesty, integrity, fairness, compassion and non-judgment, virtues like kindness and mercy, and moral beliefs such as kindness towards all living things and humanity. Wisdom is one's personal inner balance and inner knowing. There are many different types of wisdom. Each of these has its own qualities and attributes. Some of the various types of wisdom include: religious wisdom, medical wisdom, financial wisdom, interpersonal wisdom, spiritual wisdom and personal wisdom. Spiritual wisdom is a form of wisdom that is based on faith, experience and intuition, in addition to common wisdom. Wisdom is also related to our spiritual nature and inner knowledge of God. It is not based on logic or logical truths. Spiritual wisdom, however, requires a higher degree of intelligence. Spiritual wisdom is related to the inner spiritual self. Spiritual wisdom is considered to be the best wisdom, as it does not have the limitations of common wisdom. The most important aspect of wisdom is that it is an internal knowing that we can use to live our lives. Many of us believe that knowledge can change the world, but this is not true. The most beneficial knowledge in the world can have no effect on other people unless we know what to say and do to make those changes. This is why wisdom is important. We can enhance our knowledge of the world by reading books and journals and watching documentaries. But knowledge alone cannot make our world better. We need to apply knowledge. Knowledge alone cannot create change. Knowledge is not the solution, the answer, the silver bullet or the panacea. Knowledge can be used to help others resolve their problems, but knowledge alone cannot fix them. Wisdom helps us understand how to become whole, how to live life, and how to achieve true happiness. Without knowledge, life becomes meaningless. The more we understand about life, the more happiness we experience. We can enhance our knowledge by reading books and journals, watching documentaries, talking with other enlightened beings, reading the works of spiritual teachers and listening to spiritual teachers, reading books, and taking courses in the field of spirituality. We can also enhance our knowledge by learning from a spiritual teacher, such as a Buddha or a guru. But, spiritual teachers are not born of the heavens. They are created by their students. And, their students' students are created by their spiritual teachers. As we follow the spiritual teacher's teachings, we are also guided to the path of true happiness. We must choose to learn wisdom from someone who is wise and understands different types of wisdom. It is not easy, but it is worth it. We need to practice every day in order to find the correct wisdom that will lead us to our ultimate happiness.
