Question

wisdom lies in applying knowledge. do u agree?

Answer 1

yes i agree with this because the knowledge you got if you share it with your family member or your friend. may be he/she knows the answer then you are gaining knowledge from them.you are gaining and expanding your knowledge.

Answer 2

   Of course, I agree. I suppose every one will agree too.  If one does not agree it means that that person is not being wise or immature.

   Wisdom means possessing the quality of having knowledge, good thinking, showing maturity, being practical, and being sensible.

   Knowledge means a set of facts, truths, data that is relevant or irrelevant about any thing in the world.  We gain knowledge by reading, or learning from experience or learning from others through words or deeds.

   Having knowledge does not mean its application in real life to benefit oneself or the society.  Being wise means applying intelligently our knowledge in reality when the situation demands at the appropriate time to solve our problem or to achieve some thing.  That is what wisdom is.  Wisdom means to apply knowledge so that we do not get into difficult situations as well as to apply knowledge to get out of difficult situations.

   Wisdom also means behaving appropriately in different situations.  That comes from applying the knowledge combined with our aspirations, evaluation of risks, knowing one's own abilities and limitations.

  A wise person is always better than another person with more knowledge but with less applicability.  A person uses his/her intelligence to use the knowledge to gain wisdom (become wise).
