Surely
Surely,
Surely,
You have an intellect,
Surely,
You have acquired wisdom,
Surely,
You have learnt,
To ask questions,
Impatient to discover their answers,
Seeking, inquiring,
Revealing meaning,
Uncovering a growing wisdom,
From seeking
To finding.
Have you abandoned
This intelligence
And have chosen blindness
Preferring acceptance
To discovery.
God help your blindness,
God help your naivety,
God help your reliance
On those who simply repeat
The revelations of others
Who have spent a lifetime of arrogance
Building their lies
On the utterances
Of other blind men.

Yes.
There are MANY of us who have "asked questions" and subsequently "acquired wisdom" that was sought. What we have discovered is quite shocking.
However, much of this spiritual wisdom is not discovered through the intellect. Therein, lies the paradox. ;-)
