Knowledge is Pain in disguise

You feel its really true what you have heard from many that "Knowledge is Power". It makes you stand out of the crowd, if makes you keep you chin high when we are in conversations, it also gives you a warmth feeling when we won over the arguments with our stuffed knowledge.

But what goes unnoticed and unobserved most of the time is that the same knowledge which gives the sense of power is the root cause of pain in disguise.

There are moments when i hoped that i would have been as innocent as others who just go about with the flow of the events without even knowing what exactly is the cause of the event. But once we posses the reasoning and logical knowledge which portrays the event as unworthy then we go about resisting the same which causes a displeasure in the self.

The resistance reaction of the self is involuntary and is very nature of the human being. But to understand the core of it is very important since only then we can take the right decision in that specific moment. The very effort in understanding the cause of resistance brings out the nonresistance in the self.

The acquired knowledge within the self brings about a resistance which in disguise brings out the pain until the analyzing component within the self is analyzed.

Ravi,I have always believed that sometimes to know everything of something could be dangerous!Like the doctors....even a small cough could make them think of the dreadful disease …but for a common man it is just cough.But, in certain cases I agree to- Half knowledge is dangerous.

Ravi...
A nice and different view of knowledge :)

But, I still feel its nice to know more, though our perspective keeps changing, and we see the same things from different planes.
