The ends must be saved from the means to which they have become subservient. Man must rise above from physical knowledge to mental thoughts and higher ideas and finally seek light. Now he is exercising the tyranny of the small on the delicacy of the great only to smother its birth. Presently he has successfully estranged the capable minds from the effort of seeking real knowledge. Knowledge is based on thoughts.
Information is based on facts.
Knowledge cannot issue from examination of data. Knowledge comes from thought and inspiration. Data can only be useful to verify or confirm knowledge, not create it. What the higher mind discovers, the lower can verify at its own level.
