Sajid Khan - Wisdom and Its Attributes - Understand Them - Cultivate Them





"Attributes of wisdom can be described in words. Wisdom can be understood by understanding its attributes.” — Sajid Khan


Since time immemorial our prophets and philosophers have been struggling to understand, define, measure and teach wisdom as they know that the key to Utopia is a wise society.

Attributes of wisdom can be described in words. Wisdom can be understood by understanding its  its attributes. Every attribute can be very clearly understood, defined, measured and taught.

The World Needs What Our Philosophers Have Been Saying Since Time Immemorial — WISDOM.
The world is forced into a tribal society where every little difference of religious beliefs, language, culture, geography, class, and caste is exploited and milked by the criminal elements at every level from individual, group, business and country levels. Right now the war industry is itching for a major war not only to force the diversion of funds into huge profits for themselves, they need to test their latest weapons on the real battlefields. As a result the world is bogged down with the disastrous consequences of bloated defense budgets….

War inflicts death, pain, and destruction at every level. An increase in wisdom in the world averts war.


Wisdom Is A #Statusless Self-Image, Group-Image and Country-Image.

Wisdom can be defined, measured and created by defining, measuring and creating any and all of its attributes.

Here is one of the attributes: #statuslessness


There are roughly four levels of status for the self-image as follows.
1) Premature self-image.  It is self absorbed, self-centered and totally selfish. Considers itself as all important.
2) Immature self-image. It is an opportunist and corrupt. It knows that it is not that important but wants to be by hook or by crook.
3) Mature self-image. Egoist and considers itself to be the best, even though in its view all are equal.
4) Super mature self-image. A selfless self-image where there is no conscious idea of any kind of self-status. A #statusless self-image. ( A #statusless self-image generates wisdom.)

A perfect example is the story of Adam and Eve. When Adam and Eve were first created they had no idea of their own value. Not once did they pay any attention to their own self-importance. As soon as Satan introduced their self-importance their world changed from wisdom into ignorance. From being worthy of heaven they became unworthy.

Wisdom's attributes include  humility, selflessness, #othercenteredness and love etc.
Each one of these attributes springs from emotional health.
