301. His knowledge and his understanding
He knows everything.He knows everything
    And understands nothing.
He understands everything.
He understands everything
    And knows nothing.
To be in the world of the soul
    Is to know everything.
To be in the world of the mind
    Is to understand nothing.
To be in the world of the vital
    Is to understand everything.
To be in the world of the body
    Is to know nothing.
