THE EVIDENCE-BASED INVESTOR

  https://www.evidenceinvestor.com/tag/j-krishnamurti/ J. Krishnamurti, one of the greatest teachers India has produced, writes this in his landmark book, Education and the Significance of Life: “The ignorant man is not the unlearned, but he who does not know himself, and the learned man is stupid when he relies on books, on knowledge and on authority to give him understanding. “Understanding comes only through self-knowledge, which is awareness of one’s total psychological process. “Thus education, in the true sense, is the understanding of oneself, for it is within each one of us that the whole of existence is gathered. What we now call education is a matter of accumulating information and knowledge from books, which anyone can do who can read. Such education offers a subtle form of escape from ourselves and, like all escapes, it inevitably creates increasing misery.”
