Thanks for the thought. But I believe differently. What comes from observing nature is knowledge and limited knowledge at that. Wisdom comes from contemplation and thinking beyond the box.

Working with the pictogram rather than the English words,
I see a person who is reaching the top of a ladder
and who seems to be seeking the box which is levitating or flying -
perhaps it is a holy-of-holies...
Perhaps it is a paradigm -
Perhaps it is the container we call Nature, which contains the holy-of-holies, Wisdom.

Along the same lines....
