Learning wisdom

I started reading a book about the life of Eino Leino. In the very beginning there was a picture of his childhood home taken later when others lived there. In the front there was a boat, atmospheric and wise way of keeping the boat on the opposite whorel, like Eino Leino's poems, but the trees by the house looked yound and very straight, as if those who lived there nowadays wouldn't have had anything much nature's wisdom. So how to learn wisdom if one has kind of square starting point? I have written about learning intelligence in my Finnish blog http://pikakoulu.blogspot.fi and since it interests educators, it might have been translated to English at least partly. I have translated the core: the thinking course at http://quickerlearning.blogspot.fi and at my video channel http://www.youtube.com/khtervola there are on playlists (Increasing intelligence, and Rationality of feelings and instincts) quite many advices about learning intelligence. One could in addition read my e-book at the first text in my blog http://workandfreetime.blogspot.fi . After that one could repeat someof the advices about intelligence: practical things to do and nature increasing intelligence. Abotu moral I have written at http://healthilymoral.blogspot.fi . One could maybe read also http://talesfromforest.blogspot.fi/2017/08/about-kalevala.html with links.

5.10.2017   If one would on the other hand think of Runeberg's poems: fine sounding, fascinating, kind of eager but just nonsense. How to repair such view toward wisdom? First one would need a landscape like view with structures noticed well in it,as a way of objective thinking, lie in my thinking course. Then think of the ages old natural healthy ways of living and see human lives, humans and societies in their context, from the point of view of healthy ways of living, I mean, for improvements recommend the healthy ways of living and their characteristics. One should also pay attention to different kinds of wise answers and to how wide areas (and to which areas) they each apply, since there are huge differencies in such areas, and these as parts of the landscape like objective picture.
