One can learn Torah all day and actually be a great Torah Scholar, but if he doesn’t believe that during each word of Torah which he utters from his mouth he is literally connecting to Hashem, then he will not become a spiritually elevated person. Whereas, one who is not bright at all, but recognizes that with each word of Torah he utters he is literally connecting with Hashem, and sits and learns each day w/o ever becoming a recognized scholar, he is actually the one who becomes a spiritually elevated person, which is the real purpose of Limud Hatorah.
