The Wisdom Process

from Authentic Living · host Andrea Mathews

We tend to think of wisdom in terms that are rather other-worldly. We tend to think that those who are wise are either those who have been taught by a guru or they are the guru. But really, even the guru will tell us that wisdom isn't taught. It's received. And it isn't received from any external teaching. It's received from some deep resonance within us. So what is the process of attaining wisdom? People speak frequently about "lessons" we are getting in life, through the school of hard knocks and other like schools. But all too often the lessons we learn have to do with how to survive better, how to become better people or how to win friends and influence people. Sometimes the lessons have to do with enjoying life more. But is that wisdom? What is wisdom then? Is it a mood of bliss? A higher self? And once we know what it is, will we still want it? If so, how will we get it? These questions and more will be answered on this week's show. Don't miss it!
