" Knowledge is made organic when a person feels the emotions, experiences stress and anxiety and excitement and a range of other emotions, and through this physical experience, learns more about his own nature and the nature of others. And this makes much more sense than reading a thousand pages of a book that will be forgotten, that one needs to apply consciously as if he was a robot. One doesn’t truly understand the nature of knowledge when this knowledge remains inside the brain only. We can compare this situation with that of a fighter that learns fighting by reading. Until you get hurt, until you face opposition to your certainties, until you understand defeat, no theory on fighting will make any sense to you, or others, when spoken, explained or listened. "
