The function of the mind is to investigate and learn.
To learn in philosophical sense doesn´t only mean to cultivate the
memory, or to accumulate knowledge, but to learn to think clearly and rational
without illusions, to start with facts and not with beliefs and ideals.
When the thought originates from the conclusion, you learn nothing.
Merely to get information or knowledge is not to learn in philosophical
sense.
To learn in philosophical sense includes love of understanding, and love
of doing a thing for its own sake.
