THE WISDOM PAGE PODCAST
by Copthorne Macdonald
Wisdom is internal, embodied by persons. Words of wisdom arise from it. Wise behavior arises from it. But wisdom is not its products. Wisdom is a mode of cognition, a higher-order way of knowing --- one rooted in perspectives, interpretations, and values. Wisdom is a kind of meta-knowledge that helps us make better sense of the rest of our knowledge. At every moment we face some real-life situation, some fact-based reality.

It answers the action question by bringing wise values into the decision-making process.
