[Buddha-l] Means of ego inflation

[Ben Carral]

As  far  as  I  can tell, the two only selfish problems
according  to  Buddhism is (1) to believe that there is
an eternal and unchanging self, and (2) to believe that
there is not self at all.

   So  there  is  not problem in knowing that one knows
more  or less than others, that is just how things are,
and that's why there are students and teachers.

   Maybe  the question could be reformulated like this,
"Are Buddhists scholars more prone that non-scholars to
_believe_ that they know more than they actually know?"
