§ III
“
Hold back your mind from pride, for pride comes only from ignorance. The man who does not know thinks that he is great, that he has done this or that great thing; the wise man knows that only God is great, that all good work is done by God alone.
— Jiddu Krishnamurti
What It Means
This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "Hold back your mind from pride, for pride comes only from ignorance. The man who does not know thinks that he is great, that he has done this or that great thing; the wise man knows that only God is great, that all good work is done by God alone." in the context of "§ III" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
