Without wisdom, there is no understanding.
But why is understanding important?
Without understanding, anything and everything in life may seem paradoxical and inexplicable. It is this mindset that may make many people "not living in reality" -- in their minds they only see "unfairness" and "inequality." This distorted mindset may even lead many to committing crimes and violence: "Why shouldn't I rob them who've the money that I don't have?" or "They too have broken the law, so why shouldn't I do the same?"
Biblical wisdom is about "accountability" to God, which will give you spiritual "understanding." But if you are not a believer, that "understanding" may be irrelevant to you.
Having said that, human wisdom is indispensable in contemporary living. Human wisdom is not the same as acquisition of knowledge; human wisdom is the application of what you feel and understand to your everyday life and living. So, being knowledgeable does not necessarily mean being wise.
The TAO is the profound wisdom of Lao Tzu, an ancient sage from China more than 2,600 years ago. The TAO has survived and thrived for thousands of years for a good reason: it is applicable to anything and everything in contemporary daily life. The TAO shows you all the hows and the whys of anything and everything happening in your life, including the following: growing up, receiving education, earning a living, making money, getting married, starting a family, raising children, staying healthy, growing old, and dying.
The TAO helps you confront all your daily challenges, and live in balance and harmony.
TAO in Anything and Everything

In
Houston, Texas, a man using his gun robbed diners in a taqueria restaurant. The
robber was on the verge of leaving that restaurant when he was shot 9 times by
a vigilante diner, who then helped diners recover their money robbed at that
Houston taqueria restaurant before disappearing.
The police later discovered that the
suspect’s weapon was only a “plastic gun.” Texas police began searching for
that vigilante diner, with that “you-take-my-cash-I-take-your-life”
mindset out of anger.
Anger is about threats and violations to
your wellbeing. So, being able to feel anger and use anger
to safeguard your own personal wellbeing is important. People who can’t get
angry often end up accepting aggressions and violations of their
wellbeing. Many victims of family abuse simply adjust to verbal threat
or even physical violence and accept mistreatment as an unhappy fact of life.
They learn to deny its emotional impact, to rationalize its harm, and even to
avoid upsetting the abuser. Adults, who’ve learned these “survival” skills as
children, often end up marrying into abusive relationships not because they
want to, but because they unconsciously feel the abuse comfortably familiar and
even normal.
