I have been told umpteen times that I was a queen in Ancient Egypt, (Kleopatra, meaning Egyptian royal, on Saturn exact) and had even earlier lives in Sumeria (DNA conj Sumerai). So what!!!

It doesn't make me any better than anyone else. If anything, it places me in this slow learner category. Possibly slow learner who's slipped up often, and has masses of karma to resolve.

The baby souls, in contrast, probably pipped me to the post and are on their next round, so to speak. As we all must at some point. This cycle is never ending btw. So, who is old, pray?

It seems that, according to Leorpio, the wise are overly earnest and weighed heavily with the sense of their own importance. SMUG, in other words.

Best to be avoided under all conditions!

Its simply trivia from past lives. I wasn't referencing the age of the soul as the main criteria for being a "wise one". It really comes down to were you an occult practitioner in past lives, which might explain why you're interested in the occult in this life. The label or age of the soul I could give **** all about, its the past life tendencies that interests me.

~ Khalil Gibran

By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.

~ Confucius

It requires wisdom to understand wisdom: the music is nothing if the audience is deaf.

~ Walter Lippmann

The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.

I consider confidence and trust in my inner knowledge to be wise.

We are all here to learn and grow. In my eyes it's the whole point of the human experience. But I do believe that some are more in touch with their true inner self than the next.
This doesn't mean that a person who has more wisdom than the next is more important it just means they are at a different stage of their journey.

Clearly if we compare someone like the Dalai Lama to someone driven by their ego's desire for materialism we can say the Dalai Lama is wiser than him.

To say that anyone who considers themselves wise is clearly unwise is like saying someone who thinks they know and understand astrology clearly doesn't have a clue what they are talking about.

I don't think when the OP asked if anyone considered themselves to be a Wise One it was meant all that literally.

That I agree with.

Heartsong,

I agree with you on being confident in one's knowledge and qualities. But no extreme is good, in my opinion. One of characteristics of a wise person to me is being humble, at least in public lol and your Dalai Lama example is a good one in this respect. The "wise" ones are busy with learning new things and exchanging knowledge. Being excessively preoccupied with thoughts of self-importance and constantly prophesizing one's self-importance in public doesn't look wise to me.

---

Maybe I missed something? But I didn't think anyone was constantly prophesizing their self importance in public here.

But then I wouldn't notice if they were because I'm too busy off learning and exchanging knowledge myself.
