Wisdom - leaf story

Wisdom is like an entire forest of leaves... One can only hold a handful of these leaves at a time... Everytime he gains new wisdom.. he has to let go off existing leaves... thus when he learns something new he has to inevitably forget something he's learnt in the past...

Some buddhist teaching... Found it interesting.. Not saying that it is entirely correct.. But interesting.. Worth thinking about...
