Are many spiritual lessons just lesson in Epistemology?

For example, the teacup metaphor in buddhist traditions. Paraphrase: The master pours too much tea into a teacup so that the tea overflows and the student doesn't understand why he's doing it, then he says that you need to empty your mind to understand what he's trying to teach and your mind is like the overflowing tea."

Isn't this the same as epistemology?
