"To observe the movement of the breeze in the tree you cannot do anything about it. It moves either with violence, or with grace, with beauty. You, the observer, cannot control it. You cannot shape it, you cannot say, 'I will keep it in my mind.' It is there. You may remember it . But if you remember it and recollect that breeze in the tree the next time you look at it, you are not looking at the natural movements of the breeze in the tree, but only remembering the movement of the past. Therefore you are not learning; you are merely adding to what you already know. So knowledge becomes, at a certain level, an impediment to a further level." --J. Krishnamurti
