Question: Can one go crazy when too much Wisdom torments them!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
LOL! That's a loaded question!

But Yes, Too much Wisdom (self-proclaimed), Torments not just self but (some) others too! And that can lead to crazy things!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

True knowledge is in the mode of goodness and is enlightening!. Craziness is of the mode of darkness or ignorance and therefore the two are opposites!. True wisdom does not torment but gives one full knowledge of is to be done and what is not to be done!. It is not wisdom which torments but indecision due to attachment and lack of true spiritual wisdom!.
When there is an increase in ignorance, darkness, inertia, madness and illusion are manifested!.When there is goodness or true wisdom one can see things in the right position, one can hear things in the right position, one can taste things in the right position, one thinks in the right way and understands things according to their rightful position!. Real knowledge delivers one from madness and torment!. The more knowledge one has, the clearer one sees everything as it actually is!. Spiritual by nature!. I'll leave it there!. Take care!.

There is a fine line between wisdom/genius and insanity!.

You have to be prepared to explore all the possibilites even travel through insanity, if necessary, in the pursuit of wisdom!.

Vincent Van Gogh suffered periods of 'insanity' whilst producing some of his best work!.

With every insight we choose to take on as a new fact, old wisdom can become new ignorance & often demands an enormous amount of reprioritizing of even our core beliefs!.
I think a lot of our great thinkers throughout history were possibly mad from such torment, yes!.
Some of our evil geniuses too!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not wisdom!. Knowledge!. When you have too many facts in your head, it can keep you from sleeping at night!. You can also stress yourself out by looking too far into the future and seeing where we are going!.

Wisdom is knowing where to stop stressing and recognizing what you can't do and what you can!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
