Analysis of Knowing or knowing not!



Show Me one who Knows Not, that HE Knows Not,
He is a Novice, Inspire him:

Show me one whom Knows, that he Knows Not,
He is a student, Educate him:

Now, Show me a Man whom Knows,  that he Knows,
                 and Knows,  that He Knows,  that He Knows;
                           He is a MASTER, FOLLOW HIM!
