Knowledge is destructive of something immensely valuable in you: it destroys your wonder. And it is through wonder that one becomes aware of godliness, not through knowledge. You need to feel awe at sunrise, the sky full of stars, the roaring ocean. If you cannot feel awe, you cannot feel godliness, because godliness is a mystery and it is available only to those whoa re capable of feeling awe, who are capable of being mystified.
Knowledge destroys wonder, destroys the capacity to feel awe. It makes you capable of explaining away everything. It takes away all poetry from life. The knowledgeable person is never surprised by anything because he can explain everything. But no explanation is true for they don't explain anything at all. The mystery remains. The mystery is infinite.
