RE: Knowledge is Bliss, Ignorance is Power

Loved this mate... and no, I'm certain you're not dropping into a psychosis!

I think much of Taoist and Buddhist thinking is along these lines. I've been reading a lot on the Complete Reality Taoist school, and they mention that their techniques and philosophy is about un-learning everything... getting rid of the conditioning that comes from knowledge and learning and family and culture and society, etc.

Don't think the irony of me 'learning' about 'unlearning' escapes me....

As they say, "only the empty vessel can be filled"....

Nice post mate!

I wonder though - filled with what? Do they provide an answer to that?
