Wisdom—is a very important thing.
And not having to learn the lesson the hard way,
that’s the wisdom!
And when somebody goes along and passes that wisdom onto you!
Then that’s the person worth listening to.
Because that’s the consequence of having the wisdom;
you don’t have to learn it the hard way.
You don’t have to go through the pain and the sorrow
and the suffering—if you understand the importance of wisdom!

-Prem Rawat
