Kinda sounds like a "Zen & the art of motorcycle maintenance" thing.
 
This "silent knowledge" is it the same or similar to Gnosticism?
Self awareness?

Bill: This is what the search engine turned up for Mars Hill. Imagine others having to interpret what he was talking about? "For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him?" (1 Cor 2:11). I notice your theologian Torrance is one of Polanyi's interpreters.  IMO time would be better spent  on the following:

"Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him; but God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit; for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God" (1 Cor 2:9,10).  So what new thing can Polanyi come up with that God is unaware of?  judyt

 

Tacit Knowing, Truthful KnowingTacit Knowing, Truthful Knowing: The Life and Thought of Michael Polanyi

Though largely ignored, the work of research chemist-turned-philosopher Michael Polanyi (1891-1976) offers rich insight into the methods of science, the role of belief in all human knowing, and the important connections between knowledge and responsibility. Tacit Knowing, Truthful Knowing explores Michael Polanyi's criticisms of both objectivism and subjectivism, and his attempts to develop a more truthful understanding of how we know the world. His ideas are based on the belief that all knowledge is either tacit (silent and unspoken) or rooted in tacit knowledge.

This two and one-half hour program (on two audio cassettes) features interviews with leading interpreters of Polanyi's thought, including Marjorie Grene, Richard Gelwick, Thomas Torrance, and Martin Moleski. Interviews with Nobel Prize-winning chemist Dudley Herschbach, educator Steven Garber, and master violin makers Peter and Wendy Moes, along with readings from Michael Polanyi's books and correspondence, further illuminate his ideas. On two cassettes.
