self-knowledge/knowledge of self

cosmological/higher-self-knowledge or knowledge of self derived by deep introspection, uninhibited creative self-expression or spiritual work and study commonly employing the practice of meditation, the use of marijuana/ganja as holy sacrament or the shamanic use of psychedelic drugs to attain deeper inter-dimensional spiritual insight into the nature and character of one's esoteric essence and the latent capabilities thereof

The concept of self-knowledge or knowledge of self has been propagated by numerous sources over the ages: we have the Egyptian-schooled Greek's aphorism "know thyself", the notion of knowledge of self spoken of in Islamic teachings based off the Koran passage, "He who knows himself knows God," and then there is the popular use of the term "self-knowledge" that was reportedly introduced into hip-hop culture by the Five Percenters (a splinter faction of the Nation of Islam founded by Clarence 13X, a former student of Malcolm X) that became known as the fifth element of hip-hop among the other four (1. graffiti, 2. MCing, 3. b-boying/girling, 4.DJing).

Blessed with the wisdom of self-knowledge/knowledge of self ol' boy be spitting some conscious shit.

Normal Knowledge

A mysterious body of knowledge, usually related to the relationships between men and women, that some say is denied them.

First discovered on a relationship forum in late 2010 / early 2011; a young man insisted that forum members were blocking him from acquiring "normal knowledge" of relationships. When queried about the nature of this knowledge, said young man refused to answer, resorting to an annoying repetition of "Why are you denying me normal knowledge?!?"

I want to know why you say I should just go out on a date, instead of sitting here on the forum asking questions?!? What do you mean? Why are you denying me normal knowledge?

I pass on my micro-knowledge to help you better yourself; because I have your back.
