Question

Not all knowledge is found in the books.We gain knowledge from our experience.Explain in paragraph​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Books have always been a source of knowledge, but they are not the best source. Nor are they the only source. In my opinion, we learn more from our experiences than from books. Also, knowledge gained from experience is more important and valuable than bookish knowledge.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Is knowledge gained from experience more important than the knowledge gained from books?

Is Germany a good country to study in for students from India?

No; knowledge is knowledge howsoever it is gained. Knowledge gained from experience however is the most vivid hence people tend to place more importance on it. Experience is important obviously - but learning by experiencing is the worst form of learning. We are all allowed a limited number of experiences in our life so if we rely on experience to learn something we would learn very little. Knowledge gained through reason and reflection is the best because it allows us to comprehend our experience and thus to learn better and faster. Books should be used as a way to stimulate one’s own thoughts. They are a means to an end not an end in itself. They allow you to expand your base of knowledge by bringing into purview other’s experiences. Comparing their experiences with yours allows you to understand your own experiences better. If you consider another’s experiences and perspectives it helps to prevent being too rigid with your own point of view.

So experience by itself is no help in gaining knowledge; for reflection and comprehension of experience is important for knowledge. The boundary of experience is the present but knowledge pertains to the future - what has not yet happened; what is hidden. You have true knowledge only when you have the ability to grasp something before it takes shape. The primary use of experience is in acquisition of skills - for experience makes muscle memory - allowing you to become familiar and confident with your territory and finally it allows you to test your knowledge; for feedback gained by experience is useful in self-appraisal but that too only when we have the ability to assess the feedback correctly - by grasping its implications. But even here its boundary is circumscribed for skills do not allow you to deal with situations you are unfamiliar with.

So knowledge and experience are and should be mutually complimentary but learning process must seek to understand experience and and use that understanding as a base to transcend experience.
