I understand everything but know nothing

Click image to enlarge

I understand life, I understand death, I understand karma, I understand spirituality, I understand meditation, I understand truth, I understand morality, I understand people, I understand society, I understand the forces inflicted upon Man, I understand desires, I understand perception, I understand depth, I understand shallowness, I understand mental illnesses, I understand fear, I understand passion, I understand Enlightenment, I understand art, I understand everything there is to understand, I really do and that is why I’m so stupid.

I mean, I’m much better at talking about God than I am at talking to God. I talk about God because I understand Him indeed, and the more I understand the more I get addicted to that understanding. Do you understand?

   look understanding everything is your responsibility just because you think or know you understand everything doesn’t make it so life is an adventure you must decide whether it’s a good idea to help other, you don’t understand everything you can possibly understand how others feel start there become friends with people that are happy you will understand that they are not happy become friends with people that you have trouble with it will be hard at first but these people will give better perspectives

   The philosophy is do not try to unravel mystery of universe. This is why yogis never unravel stuff.

   Unfortunately I don’t, but as soon as you think you understand everything you’ll stop evolving, so always keep an open mind and keep growing.

   Thanks Jill. And indeed pride is the fiercest enemy of true evolution, the dark side of God.
   I thank you for your comment and wish you and us all a sincere and authentic journey back to where we belong.

   That is true. You need to have open mind. I have see lot of people with closed minds and they just dont grow.

   @sa pits whether your mind is open or not. At the end of day, noone can unravel mystery of universe. Thats bitter truth.

   Have you ever considered creating an e-book or guest authoring on other sites? I have a blog based on the same theme if you’re interested.

    Socrates said something like this before, we call it the illusion of knowledge, in other words, we think we know, but we don’t

Feel like saying something?
