I've finally figured it out

I have finally figured it out -- the "Wisdom Of The East" is: (wait for it) "Be born of a HIGH CASTE, and RICH".

That "wisdom" has been totally embraced by our American "Masters Of The Universe"

Another "Road To Wisdom" -- if in Tibet. Have an entire nation working for you, supporting you, giving you stuff. Wear robes, say "wise" things -- and YOU TOO can be A HOLY MAN!

(if you are a WOMAN and do stuff like that -- they tend to over medicate you).
