The guru school dropouts always believe themselves to be the wisest of all.

The wisest are those that know that they don't know what they don't know.

As Socrates said: "I know that I know nothing..."

Lol. This attitude saves the guru a lot of time.

In the song "In held t'was I" by Procol Harlem

let me remind you of the pilgrim
Who asked for an audience with the Dalai Lama

He was told he must first spend five years in contemplation

After the five years
He was ushered into the Dalai Lama's presence, who said
'Well, my son, what do you wish to know?'

So the pilgrim said

'I wish to know the meaning of life, father.'
So the Dalai Lama smiled and said
'Well my son, life is like a beanstalk,

isn't it?'

Wisdom is to understand something that is happening and act on it.

I can look into it more.
The Holy Bible has examples and answers for such things.

Wisdom is knowing that you don't know how much that you don't know.
