Power and Wisdom

In order to change this world, we all need power. That is exactly what we’re acquiring day in day out. We increase power by gaining experiences, and by increasing our knowledge. Indeed, knowledge is power. Power is the human capacity to control our environment by scientific or technological means.

However, if lacking in wisdom, we will not be able to harness this power and use it creatively for the welfare of humanity.

May we never forget to ask ourselves: For what reason do we cultivate wisdom?
