Summary

This quote suggests that true knowledge and understanding arises not from accumulation of information and education, but rather from unlearning and letting go of preconceived notions. It implies that sometimes our pre-existing knowledge can constrain our perspective, preventing us from seeing things with fresh eyes. Therefore, it is only by setting aside what we think we know and embracing a state of openness and curiosity that we can truly access deeper wisdom and insight.
