Is knowledge absolutely useless?

Knowledge is a useful bridge to navigate the outer world, but for the inner journey, it becomes a barrier; true wisdom arises from lived experience, not accumulated facts.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source definition
Use facts to handle life outside, but to know your true self, let go of showing what you know and become humble, quiet, and aware.
Why this matters practically
- Helps you excel at work while not mistaking information for inner growth.
- Reduces ego from degrees and titles; nurtures humility and presence.
- Clarifies practice: study for skills, meditate for self-knowledge.
