The Holy Grail

Knowledge is POWER!!!! Absolute power corrupts absolutely. If you drank from the Holy Grail and all knowledge was granted unto you what would you do with such knowledge??? Is knowing too much dangerous??? From the moment we are born our brains are programmed to learn. We process touch, sight, sounds, smells and emotions. We learn to steer clear of negatively rewarding experiences regarding all these and set boundaries within ourselves in which we operate safely. We close our minds to something once it's decided on a certain experience. Is this built-in redundancy good or bad? We are said to use a fraction of our brain power. Is this constraint a built in mechanism to keep us from knowing too much? Someone who knows too much tips the scales in their favour. They would yield unimaginable power. Would that power corrupt a man so that it would put lives in danger? Would the character of the man be able to prevent such a thing from happening? Or is it too much of an imbalance for the Universe to deal with??? Is one man too much of a risk to be empowered with all knowledge. What if this knowledge is shared among a select few men? "Guardians" who keep the balance of power and knowledge intact! With the change of the ages looming, does the change occur within the "Guardians"...they are not entrusted forever with this responsibility as this would put the balance at risk again...Like the Olympic flame is passed from man to man...in order to keep the Flame Eternally Burning...
