267. He is the wisest man
He is a foolBecause
He has not read any books.
Perhaps so he is.
He is a wise man
Because
He has read ten thousand books.
Perhaps so he is.
He is a wiser man
Because
He has read fifteen thousand books.
Perhaps so he is.
He is the wisest man,
By far
The wisest man,
Who has read only two special books:
Aspiration-height
And
Surrender-light.
Sri Chinmoy, The Wings of Light, part 6, Aum Press, Puerto Rico, 1974
