wing yangmin

Wing Yangmin argued that truth and moral knowledge were a privilege that was only received by those who earned it. That if knowledge was not obtained by a person it is simpler to experience a life of virtue without consequence. In my opinion, Yangmin's idea was basically similar to the saying, "ignorance is bliss". I felt that this statement(along with yangmins's idea) is true to some extent. but on the other hand i do not believe that knowledge make you miserable because you are informed. I thought that it was interesting because it is impossible to compare two backgrounds that are so different. For instance a philosopher and an uneducated house servant.
