i believe "pansophic" means something like "all wisdom", am i right?

so, where do you suppose wisdom resides?

some say we can find it in nature, far away from the distractions of civilization.

others say institutions of learning can make us wise.

maybe great books.

great works of art or music.

moving experiences, memorable encounters.

there is a spiritual side, perhaps contemplation or meditation?

so do you o wise ones have any insights about this font of wisdom?

There is an interesting new book just out called The Brain Wars that asks questions like this.

This scientists says our mind does not just reside in a computer made of meat that we call our brain.
