“When does wisdom comes unsought
...?”
Somebody asked
thus!
Very fortunately
sometimes, my memory overtakes my 'normal' sense....
This time, it
reminded me of that old saying.... adage ... or whatever.....
(The original is in
Malayalam language... the only benefit is the appeal it has due to
rhyming words, when pronounced.... 'Kandu' and 'Kondu'.... )
“Kandu
padichillengil....
Kondu padikkum....”
(One who does not
learn by observation, watching, seeing.... is bound to learn it when
oneself is hit hard by the very same experience!)
....
The memory of it
saved me from the need to look at:
whether , I know
about 'wisdom'...
whether, I have
wisdom (enough to talk even)..
whether I have the
ability to discriminate between sought and unsought forms of
wisdom...
etc...!!!
I answered...
...
The asker said
“fine”... and I looked about.. there was no fine to be paid,
so it was fine 'with me' (his fine is with me still...)...
...
So, here it is
now....
please fine me, if
needed... or else... business as usual... no interruption from
abstract things like wisdom etc!
