Wisdom Talks

Wisdom, sapience, or sagacity is the ability to contemplate and act productively using knowledge, experience, understanding, common sense, and insight. Wisdom is associated with attributes such as unbiased judgment, compassion, experiential self-knowledge, self-transcendence, and non-attachment, and virtues such as ethics and benevolence.

Wisdom has been defined in many different ways, and there are several distinct approaches to assessing the characteristics attributed to wisdom.
