Mother Mary is the Seat of Wisdom because she bears within herself the Wisdom Of The Father, Jesus Christ who illumines every Human Being who comes into the World.
When We consider Mary as The Seat of Wisdom we contemplate the Incarnation Of the Son the Word Made Flesh who pitches his tent among men having made Mary His Abode.
Thus, When we revere Mary as the Seat of Wisdom we enter that tent which is Christ and we reach there through Mary -- The Gate of Salvation.
Mary is the Seat of Wisdom because she is the Mother of Jesus Christ -- Fully God and Fully Man.
Mary is that wise virgin who does not remain ignorant of how God encounters her along Life's Journey. She allows him to teach her through the events of every day life.
That is how she assesses and deepens her understanding of Jesus who would otherwise be an "Ineffable Mystery". To Her, Ordinary Life becomes History and events become symbols of deep significance and maternity becomes discipleship.
As, a Disciple of Christ Mary always enter more deeply in the plan of salvation that unfolds before her eyes specially the Mystery Of The Cross and Easter.
Finally at Pentecost, Mary reaches the pinnacle of illumination regarding her Risen Son and the Church through the Gift of the Holy Spirit.
Mary Shines as The Seat of Wisdom not only because Christ -- The Incarnate Wisdom made her womb his abode but also and above all because she possessed the spiritual knowledge inaccessible to human reasoning and attained it through faith -- the most sublime knowledge.
