Q121: Swami! What is wisdom?
Bhagawan: Wisdom is not textual information. Wisdom is not scholarship. Wisdom is not preaching. Wisdom is not verbal or vocal. Wisdom is not an academic Master's Degree or Doctorate. Wisdom is practical experience. Wisdom cannot be stuffed into the head. Wisdom is what enables you to identify your own mistakes, faults and defects, corrects them and leads you towards not repeating any errors of the past.
(From: "Satyopanisad" Vol. 1 by Prof. K. Anil Kumar)
