Sword of Wisdom
"With The Sword of Wisdom, Sever The Doubt In Your Heart" - John McConnell Yoga video #22 A practice contemplating a quote from the bhagavad gita
This great wisdom is hard to do.
Suppose you get some Data. You manage to turn it into Information. Over time the Information becomes your Knowledge. Lastly, it becomes ingrained in you and becomes Wisdom that you can act upon.
This is what I believe happens in the learning process. The quote, to me, indicate someone giving you wisdom. With that wisdom you are to sever the doubt and just act. This is the part I have a hard time with.
As human beings we often turn away from wisdom because it did not originate from us. As I often phrase it, "We would hit our head on a wall rather than believing that wisdom that someone gave us that the wall is hard."
This is human nature. This is why kids do not listen to parents. But as adults we have no excuse. We see the wisdom, and as the quote teaches, we must sever the doubt and act.
Again.. hard to do..
Today's question is:
"Could you sever the doubt in your heart with the sword of wisdom?"
