8627. INHABITANTS AND SPIRITS OF THE PLANET JUPITER - continued

The inhabitants of the planet Jupiter believe that wisdom consists in good and right thinking about things that go on in life. Such wisdom is acquired by them from their parents, right from when they are young children; it is passed on to succeeding generations, and grows in the process. As for organized knowledge such as exists on our planet, they know nothing whatever of it, and have no wish to know. They call it shade and compare it to clouds that come in front of the sun. They have gained this idea of such knowledge from some belonging to our planet who have boasted in their presence that they were wise because of that knowledge.
