“To acquire knowledge is noble, but to translate it into action is nobler. Yet there is another, more elevated state of being and that is when you are able to crush the idols of knowledge and achievements of action by neither becoming vane with them nor being reliant on them. To this higher goal you may need a spiritual guide to lead you through”
