Quotes about Wisdom by Sri Aurobindo

  • What men call knowledge, is the reasoned acceptance of false appearances. Wisdom looks behind the veil and sees.
  • The heart's words fall back unheard from Wisdom's throne.
  • When Reason died, then Wisdom was born.
  • Knowledge gropes but meets not Wisdom's face.
  • Late, I learned that when reason died, then Wisdom was born; before that liberation, I had only knowledge.
  • All religions have some truth in them, but none has the whole truth; all are created in time and finally decline and perish. Mahomed himself never pretended that the Koran was the last message of God and there would be no other. God and Truth outlast these religions and manifest themselves anew in whatever way or form the Divine Wisdom chooses.
