My guns are trained against only the pseudo
platitudes and dropping of high sounding definitions that this open
statement of mine would attract and I can
predict with precision who will all wisecrack and hand out definitions
the real human starts to exist when the dividing line between knowledge and wisdom becomes something not exactly definable, something like the triple
point state we encounter in thermodynamics.

Simply throwing up two words wisdom and knowledge and making pious comments or
echoing upon some old platitude is not acceptable.
I should know what I know and
I should also know what I do not know.
If these conditions are fairly satisfied, then wisdom starts.
Sanskrit is just another language and
explaining the vigraham or samasam or some old quote from Sanskrit will not carry us anywhere.
The persons
with knowledge were always aware that they had their limitations.
Chanakya
did never take the weapon.. that part of his operation was entrusted to
Mourya the Chandraguptata.. there lies his wisdom.
I have seen and recorded so many confessions in my
professional life.
I have extracted confessions from tax evaders... there is
no realization for them.. The confessions are simply ad hoc. They retract
the averrments within the shortest possible time.
Where is the realization
here?.
Immediately after an amorous experience, a person even gets so
satiated that he/she may promise that there will never be a second look at the
other sex.
For how many minutes will such vairagyam endure?
And if true realization occurs then the person will not be there either as knowledgeable
or wise...the state he reaches will be above these two.
I respect viewpoints
of all but I hate pseudo intellectualism.. I know personally that I have
contemplated on many things, experimented with many thoughts much more profound than the
pearls of wisdom I encounter in these threads.
My guns are trained against them who simply reel off inarticulate sentences as if they were propagating Gospel truths..
People scratch the backs of people whom they know and are attracted to in ways best known
only to themselves and the persons
lack maturity even to judge a thing on its merits even applying a modicum of objectivity.
You wrote about satyam param deemahii, if you say
the deemahi means that you have reached some realisation, I will readily believe you
because I know you will not tell a falsity for the life of yours.

I am only
against pseudo intellectualism and crowd pulling techniques which I see
in plenty hereabouts.
Most of the time I feel like a post doctoral
student sitting in the first standard holding a slate and slate pencil.
