Wisdomhas to do with the development of the life within the form,with the progress of the spirit through those ever-changing vehicles,and with the expansions of consiousness that succeed each other from life to life.It deals with the life side of evolution.Since it deals with the essence of things and not with thethings themselves,it is the intuitive apprehension of the truth apart from the reasoning faculty,and the innate perception that can distinguish between thecfalse and the true,between the real and the unreal.It is more than that,for it is also thegrowing capacity of the thinker to enter increasingly into themind of
spirit,or god,to realise the true inwardness of the great pageant of the universe,to vision the objective,andto harmonise more and more with the higher measure.Wisdom is the science of the spirit,just as knowledge is the science of matter.Knowledge is separtive and objective,while wisdom is synthetic and subjective.Knowledge divides,wisdom unites.Knowledge differentiates while wisdom blends,wisdom is the enlightened application of knowledge,through love and understanding.Understanding maybe then the beginning of wisdom,who knows?
kind regards michael.
