Well first of all you have to understand what ignorance is bliss means, it means that everything is perfect or you don't care or ignore it.
What the quote is saying that being ignorant may make you happy, but it shouldn't be how you live your life, ignoring what is going on all around you.
"Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise" In Eastern spiritualism (Be it Hindu Buddhist Zen or any other path) quietening of one's mind, from its constant queries and chattering is the path to enlightenment. In other words, a state of being, of "NO MIND" but being of pure consciousness is a state of BLISSFULLNESS. In this context, intellectuality and all inquiries in pursuit of knowledge, is the exact antithesis to the pursuit of Enlightenment (BLISSFULLNESS). In other words, cerebral inactivity or state if IGNORANCE, equates to the state of BLISSFULLNESS (Enlightenment). Also the search for knowledge is a foolish pursuit away from Enlightenment. "Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise
Socrates believed that ignorance leads to moral wrongdoing because it prevents individuals from making informed and rational decisions. He argued that if people truly knew what was right, they would act accordingly, and therefore, ignorance itself is a form of vice.
This means that ignorance tends to resist change because it fears the unknown. People who are ignorant or uninformed may be uncomfortable with change because they are unsure of what it will bring or how it will affect them.
Well, darling, that quote is basically saying that ignorance is like stumbling around in the dark without a damn flashlight. Your mind is in the dark, clueless and lost, with no guidance or insight to help you find your way. It's a poetic way of saying that ignorance is a real dumb way to live your life.
This phrase suggests that knowledge is beneficial and leads to positive outcomes, while ignorance can lead to harm and negative outcomes. It highlights the importance of seeking knowledge and understanding to make informed decisions and avoid potential obstacles or pitfalls.
"Gaelic" can mean "Irish Gaelic' or "Scottish Gaelic". They are classified as two distinct languages.
This is a quotation from an English poet called Thomas Gray born December 26 1716 and died 30 June 1771 from the poem Ode on a Distant Prospect of Eton College "Yet ah! why should they know their fate? Since sorrow never comes too late, And happiness too swiftly flies. Thought would destroy their paradise. No more; where ignorance is bliss, 'Tis folly to be wise."
"Ignorance is bliss" means that sometimes it is easier or more comforting to not know or understand certain things, as knowledge or awareness may bring about worry, disappointment, or fear. It suggests that being unaware can lead to a happier or more carefree state of mind.

i shouldnt have to answer this -.-
Enlightenment in a secular context often means the "full comprehension of a situation" but in spiritual terms the word alludes to a spiritual revelation or a state of bliss - free from ignorance, desire and suffering.
It all depends on your interpretation of those words. If by Heaven you mean an afterlife, there isn't much similarity(outside of peace and bliss maybe). In some traditions they do mean the same thing and that is basically bliss or enlightenment in this life, in this world instead of living in hell in this life, in this world here and now.
felicidad

ignorance can be overcome for proper understanding
bliss or joy
