Two kinds of knowledge are to be known – the higher and the lower. The Rig, Yajur, Sama, & Atharva, the Phonetics, Rituals, Grammar, Etymology, Metrics, & Astrology are the lower. That by which the imperishable is perceived is the higher. - Mundaka Upanishad
You may know all the right words, quote the scriptures, be brilliant in your discussions and yet remain a bag of bones. Or you may be inconspicuous and humble, an insignificant person altogether, yet glowing with loving kindness and deep wisdom. - Nisargadatta Maharaj
