WISDOM
December 4, 2020
SUMMARY
In this dialogue between “I” and “AM,” Matías explores the idea that
everything we seek in the external world is within ourselves. He
suggests that full awareness is like a blank sheet of paper and that by
crumpling it and creating shadows, new forms and possibilities emerge.
Additionally, the distinction between Knowledge and Wisdom is discussed,
emphasizing that wisdom is a personal and internal perception developed
through the ability to savor knowledge. Ultimately, the text encourages
savoring the game of existence and enjoying conscious exploration,
recognizing that true gain lies in appreciating the experience and
sharing with others.
QUOTE
“Wisdom is a personal, internal perception that develops with the
ability to savor knowledge.”

Creative Visualization Meditation: Imagine a blank sheet as a
metaphor for your mind and consciousness. Visualize this blank sheet as
a canvas filled with infinite possibilities. Then, start visualizing
your goals and desires on that blank sheet. See how they unfold and take
shape in your mind. This meditation will help you connect with your
creative capacity. -
Discernment Meditation: Focus your meditation on intelligent
discernment. Reflect on your experiences and learnings and how these
have contributed to your personal wisdom. Contemplate how you can apply
this wisdom in your everyday life and make more conscious decisions. -
Joy in the Search Meditation: During your meditation, reflect on the

the game of existence, interacting with other conscious beings. Practice
