Wisdom

The wisdom for a successful life

Wisdom is a skill that helps us to think, speak and act wisely in all situations in life and thus to lead a successful life. The wisdom of the Jewish and Christian religions is crystallised in a special way in the Ten Commandments of the Torah and in the Beatitudes in the Gospel according to Matthew. The Ten Beatitudes, i.e. the eight Beatitudes plus the salt of the earth and the light of the world, express an inner and spiritual dimension of the Ten Commandments and ultimately lead to their fulfilment and transcendence.
