ONLINE Wed, Jun 18: "Wisdom versus Enlightenment"

Details

What are the differences between wisdom and enlightenment?

Wisdom in its common definition is knowledge that is applied in everyday life with discernment. It includes judgement and ethical perspectives coming from experience that has been reflected upon. It is often the fruit of a contemplative life.

Enlightenment or awakening is understood as a realization of our true nature or perhaps the arrival into some final Truth depending on the spiritual path. These two aspects of spirituality seem to differ in their aims and qualities. What do you think?

Questions:
How do you approach these dual aspects of spirituality?

How have they shown up in your life?

What matters to you the most as you move through your life?
