Knowledge or Wisdom To Seek?
Deepa Khomdram *
There are no dearth of intellectuals but
Wisdom are by far being neglected.
Knowledge is what we sought
Seeking more of the unseen and the unknown.
Drenched in the vast ocean of Truths and Facts
Surrounded by realms of books
We are lost in search of the undaunted facts
Forsaking the old beliefs and Rituals.
Heading towards an unknown destination
Trying to carve a way out,
Walking past the Untrodden path
Only to Find ourselves lost amidst nowhere.
Educators and Intellectuals to impart knowledge
Are everywhere to be found.
But Gurus true to heart, to held the torch and guide us
To gain wisdom are rare to find.
The knowledge that we gain, are they of any use?
Are they of any importance without wisdom?
Questions worth asking are innumerable but
The answer is nowhere to be found!
