Recently in my Wednesday night Buddhist study group, we had a vivid discussion about the concept of wisdom. We were eight persons of different ages and backgrounds around the tea table, each with our own personal views on what wisdom is. But even though we had slightly different perceptions and came up with a variety of definitions, it was clear that there is a common core that we could all agree on. Inspired by our discussion, I will share what wisdom is to me, and why it is so important.
The deeper meanings of wisdom
True wisdom is the key to living a full life for the benefit of oneself and others.
