Wisdom flows...

By Vichara

Wouldn’t be fantastic if wisdom could flow from one person to another, just like water flows from one vessel to another vessel until the water level is the same in both of them. The problem is that to obtain wisdom, you must make an independent, serious effort on your own.

Did you know?
English borrowed "epigone" from German in the 19th century. The Germans themselves had taken the word from the Latin "epigonus," which means "successor." The Latin term followed the Greek "epigonos," which was often used in plural to designate the sons of seven legendary Greek leaders who were defeated at Thebes. "Epigonos" in turn came from the Greek verb "epigignesthai," meaning "to be born after." "Epi-" can mean "after," and "gignesthai" means "to be born."
