(Stuffing the mind with more and more academic and other knowledge is not what it takes to truly expand the bounds of thinking. The nature of mind is more complicated than that. As in theory they know, in terms of the Fourth Way teaching.)
I don't think much positive development will be found through thought. I think (LOL) that people think too much, and that gets in the way of our ability to actually perceive the real truth. I myself still struggle with this, but at least I recognize this fact. I am learning to be patient with myself.
