WHAT IS WISDOM?

There seems to be a lot of talk about wisdom thesedays and yet wisdom is really not about talking. Instead it is all about how we interact with others and the larger world.

Truly wise people know that every action and reaction impacts on the whole and that there is a need to tread lightly and mindfully, ever conscious of how our decisions might impact on future generations.

Truly wise people also recognise that we carry within us the very dna of our ancestors together with old patterns and conditioning that can effect how we see the world. To walk the wisdom way we have a responsibility to acknowledge these patterns and to understand that they create a lens through which our individual perceptions have developed.

The wisdom way allows us to hold true to our values and beliefs whilst acknowledging that they come only from our perspective. It creates an openess to the perspective of others and hence the possibility for mutual transformation.
