There were two brothers who were both very interested in acquiring wisdom and knowledge. They would often spend hours discussing philosophical ideas and debating various topics. One day, they came across a wise man who had spent his entire life studying and seeking knowledge.

The brothers were fascinated by the man's wisdom and asked him how he had acquired it. The wise man replied, "I have spent my entire life seeking knowledge and wisdom. I have read countless books and have spent hours in deep contemplation and meditation. But above all, I have learned to listen. I listen to the thoughts and ideas of others, and I am always open to learning from them. This has been the most valuable source of knowledge for me."

The two brothers were deeply moved by the wise man's words and decided to follow his advice. From that day on, they made a conscious effort to listen to others and learn from their experiences and insights. And in time, they too became wise and learned men.
