Gv: Are you speaking in terms of self discovery? Or any kind of discovery?
We can learn all sorts of useful information about the physical world or
about skillful methods  of acting in the physical world, through being told
what other people have discovered. Knowledge enables. It is foolish to
engage in high-risk activities, without sufficient knowledge.  Also, people
have differing capacities and talents. In some areas we may easily discover
on our own while in other areas of inquiry, what we are capable of
discovering on our own is far more limited.  The difficulty arises when we
try to use this outward approach (of applying knowledge to bring about
results) inwardly because we are not separate from our consciousness to act
upon it.  We (consciousness) are the disorder. So a different "instrument"
is needed.

When something is explained in such a way as you then understand it, that
steals from you the action of discovery. When something is understood it
must be remembered and can be changed. When something is discovered no
memory is needed, for it remains real.
