Knowledge is "Awareness".. It is a continuous process gained by the senses from birth to death. In simple words Knowledge begins as a curiosity in a new born baby expands to beliefs, then justified by logic blossoms to knowledge as we grow older. Many Philosophers have written their theories on this subject. To pin point a particular theory as correct is difficult..

The begining of knowledge starts when you have peace with yourself. If you can live with and be happy with what you believe is right no matter what others think then you are on the path to true knowledge.
If you can except your own faults and short comings as well as those of others you are on the path to true knowledge.

When one questions who they are and what is the purpose of human life. And when they understand that- We are not this material body, IE; Race, color, nationality, Religion, mind, intellect, senses, job, etc. We are all eternal spirit souls, part and parcel of the Supreme Soul, also known as Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, Vishnu, etc. We never die, only this mortal body dies. This material world is not our real home, it is called Maya (illusion) and is temporary and full of misery, only one fourth of the souls come here, and the rest are enjoying blissful eternal loving relationships with our Maker named above. We fell here due to envying Gods position. He made the material world for those who want to try to live separately from Him (Which is impossible because He is actually everywhere). After many lifetimes of trying to be happy in this temporary world, one becomes frustrated and board and begins to question their existence. We then seek out real happiness, and when one becomes sincere God reveals how to come back Home. Those who are intelligent, take up the process of self realization (Bhakti Yoga), which begins with the chanting of the Maha Mantra, (the great mantra for deliverance from all suffering and illusion), which gives one real peace, happiness and reality. Then at the end of life, they can give up all material attachments and fully surrender to God and return to the eternal Kingdom, where there is no more birth, death, old age, or disease and be eternally happy.
