Thanks for the feedback. For the sake of clarity and syntax, I would define Knowledge as the things we have learned through direct personal experienced and prcessed into Knowledge. Awhile back in another thread, I saw that Dreamways had set up a site where people could post their personal glossaries. Not a bad idea, since it seems that theToltec terminology tends to be interpreted differently by almost everyone who engages it. When I was initially creating the Quantum Shaman website, I realized that such a glossary was a necessity, so I set it up as part of the site itself, if anyone is interested.

KNOWLEDGE -- as used throughout these documents, Knowledge shall refer to the result of direct personal experience. Example: we are taught as children that fire will burn, but until we touch a candle flame to see for ourselves, we cannot know for sure. The Quantum Shaman seeks Knowledge, never settling for faith or belief systems. The greatest Knowledge comes through gnosis.This is just my personal definition, which hopefully sheds some light as to where I'm coming from when talk about the differences between information, belief and knowledge.
