| Summary / Abstract (Note) | I wish to confess to my friend who have a misconception that I am a very knowledgeable person, that it is not true. Whatever I say is probably based forty percent on knowledge and the rest is information. Anything claimed on the basis of information is not true knowledge. My friend Pawanji differentiation between knowing and believing/ assuming'. It is a fundamental differentiation. We know very little. Mostly it is what we believe in, and yet we claim that we are logical and not superstitious. |
