ILL ADVISED WISDOM

All of have us have some intelligence . this intelligence used in life in proper way and well judged while use grows in to wisdom . this wisdom is earned , learning through experience and modifying once behavior towards goodness and moral qualities that are socially acceptable. society calls it wisdom . but there is a black and dark side of the development of this raw intelligence , because of different factors and circumstances some time due to bad company , broken family , that i call ill advised and ill judged intelligence and those who use it , practice it and are in the nature of it , think themselves wise . society call them clever , cunning , crafty , tactful and tricky .
I call them ill advised because they do not know that they are moving in wrong direction . this is great irony that imprudent thinks that he is prudent . a person who knows not and knows not that he knows not . Osho says , " when a mad man comes to know that he is mad , he is not mad , he has been cured , he should be released from the hospital ." Yaksha in Mahabharat is answered by Yudhisthir that greatest wonder in this world is that people are dying every minute , all will have to die but those who are alive say , " I WILL NOT DIE " this is what happening with these ill advised wise persons .
A gentleman who tells a lie or gives a false statement or steals or deceives the other or commits any thing that is not approved by society , he thinks that he has clicked some wisdom in particular and be -fooled the other and he calls himself wise and expert . but really he is wrongly in the ditch of self deception . he deceived one , then second , then third and hundred , one at a time (one has been his victim , once at one time ) but that ill behavior has hit him and his mind and conscious , hundred times and this has become his habit and nature. now he can not help it and one day or the other he is in the net . on the one hand he is ill-famed as a criminal , a man of bad name (a bad man is better than a bad name ) on the other he may make good journey to police station , court and finally to jail . see ! every one knows that jails are over crowded and in these jails criminals are being kept and none else . i asked many criminals to know if they had ever thought of visiting jails because of their ill- doings and the answers were mostly in " NO " . i know of many who being in big , good and great places fell in the traps of ill- fate and never expecting what fallowed in the ending part of their lives that did not seem to be worth of their positions .
I wish and hope that we should try to know and evaluate ourselves now and then to see where we are going wrong or otherwise. i also think that prayer and humble submission to God may lead us to right path but before this we will have to be simple and plain and also avoid to impress that we are wise . God may help us to do that . KNOW THYSELF is old and known maxim of Indian Culture and Philosophy. TO be simple and TRUE is the best to be safe and secure with grace of GOD .
