in my search of knowledge

Some limit their search for knowledge at only that which is the good part and for some reasons best known to them choose to block their eyes from the knowledge of the opposite.As for me i shall look for the knowledge of good and its opposite pari passu at least concerning that subject which i have chosen to under study.I have made a solemn promise to my lord not to do anything evil or go close to it but that
did not include knowing about evil and its ways.My position might sound too extreme but if you have been where i have, you will have very little choice but to appreciate my statement and voluntarily join me without any coercion.I once lost a fight to a fellow fighter and it was painful because i did not lose to his being superior,faster or more powerful but it was because he played some tricks which were not supposed to be allowed but unfortunately were overlooked and accepted.After the tournament i went back to the training ground and my instructor told me it will be hard for me to be a champion if i do not have knowledge of those kind of tricks.he requested that i learn them,know them, practice them and afterwards i should perfect ways of stopping and neutralizing them.Even if i choose not to use them no one will ever use them to my disadvantage.hence i concluded this should also apply to all facets of my life, that for every knowledge i choose to have i must have a balanced scale of it that is its merit and demerit,its strength and weakness,its bad side and its good side.i believe that is only when i can claim to have full grasp of that knowledge.After all Studying a goat does not make me a goat.
