Wisdom

 Wisdom

if I were really-wise, i wouldn’t have been talking, about it 😭

Probably, I ‘think’ i can talk ‘about’ wisdom, without waiting to become one (waiting to become wise, and then to speak ‘about it’ might not work! Because, I would then see-clearly, the futility in that excercise😜

We don’t need to be beautiful, to speak ‘about’ beauty

An ugly person can be ‘sensitive’ enough, to perceive beauty, and therefore should be able to appreciate beauty, and if he is capable of expressing well, using words, he might be able to even ‘speak’ about it!

A beautiful person need not be aware of one’s own beauty (though, such cases are rare)

That person cannot possibly understand, if somebody tells him “Hey, you are indeed beautiful!”

Anger might elude the awareness of the person who is right now ‘caught up into that emotion, anger’. A person who is a ‘little wise’ might make it a point to ‘become’ fore-warned, when anger creeps into him, and he benefits in getting ‘a chance’ to be able to contain it to a ‘possible extent’ ( a wise person doesn't ‘become’ angry…. but, he has the freedom to feign anger when the situation seems easier to ‘handle’ by looking-angry to others.

Wisdom, doesn’t exist without letting the wise person knowing that he is wise, unlike beauty , anger, confusion, etc

Shall we try to look at ‘sensitivity’ at intellectual levels?
Physical sensitivity at skin level, a doctor can CONFIRM, using a piece of cotton, and then a sharp pin, to touch our ‘doubtful’ area of the skin and asking us ‘ able to feel it now?” . we know already, and only the doctor ‘needs’ our words “yes/no”. Insensitivity of a piece of skin announces death of that part of the skin!

Emotional sensitivity, varies with each_type_of_emotion.
Some people miss to_laugh at a good joke! (can’t help it. If we try to point out their lack of sensitivity towards humour, they ‘become’ angry :) àt once! anger-sensitivity is a reaction, not a ‘sensitivity’ ….. strictly speaking— there is a subtle difference, though, we commonly address an anger-prone-person as “he is a bit too-sensitive” Please see– ‘a bit’ and ‘too’ are opposites :)) ‘too’ indicates ‘too much’ !!

Right now, most of us ‘feel’ only pain deep-enough, to evoke tears as an ‘emotional-response’ (robots of A.I. need to be programmed to manufacture-tears, if they sustain an injury. They cannot ‘feel’ hurt like us-humans! Even words can hurt-us, without needing an injury :)) Again, a reaction to words, being not-enough wise, to ‘sense’/be senseAbled/sensible enough to know that words of insult are a pre-conclusion by the other, and we do not become ‘that’, merely because the other fool misjudges me and says “you are a fool” !!!

Like ‘joy’ or even_happiness evoking tears among a few lucky ones among us….. luckier ones, sensitized enough towards music, can beget tears, listening to a beautiful musical performance! … not all of them who know a_lot about_music are necessarily sensitized enough to experience it deep_enough to get tears😜. ( desi concept of music, elaborates it saying “music is technically flawless, but somehow, that bhav/bhavam is missing 😰”. A performance which might fail a little, in rhythm, laya, swara, or any of its elements might be “rich” in emotion of bhava, and might evoke tears in a sensitized listener🙏

I tried to look for ways to ‘become wise’ !
Wisdom eluded me for too long :((
then, it struck me! “hey! why not try SENSITIVITY instead?
Not as easy as I thought_it_was ….
Sensitivity ‘reveals’ its next layer saying ‘here I am’, only after I stabilize on its previous one!

spiritual sensitivity, presented to me as the-biggest-challenge :((

( details of the hurdles i faced, are too-mystic 😜, to be encapsuled in words 🙏😰)

somewhere, I had a very vague_feeling, as if that elusive fellow called wisdom, is trying to tease-me, oftener than ever before! (the tragic part is physical-level-sensitivity is unable to hold-on/wait, owing to age, to say a “‘hello!” to that wisdom, if-and-when it is likely to dawn!.... Darkness is perennially unable to meet the sunlight to wish a “good morning” ).

unwisely yours,
