Whatever is sensorially perceived is like the wrapper of the real thing, a

sample, a description, an advertisement, a mask, merely the seemingly real

outward appearance of what lies behind. Reality is therefore not the

presence but the absence, not the positive but the negative, not the seen

phenomena but their unseen source, not the known actual but unknown

potential.

Excessive verbal communication has become so compulsive and widespread that

it is taken for granted as the only way to understand anything.

But real Understanding is of a different dimension altogether.

Whatever is sensorially

perceived is like the wrapper of the real thing, a

sample, a description, an advertisement, a mask, merely the seemingly

real

outward appearance of what lies behind. Reality is therefore not

the

presence but the absence, not the positive but the negative, not the

seen

phenomena but their unseen source, not the known actual but unknown

potential.

Very fine statement.

I perceive a message entering eyes,

being read.

That is only "outward appearance".

What is the actuality is not the computer,

not the eyes, not the meaning of the

message being read.

And yet, the message was sent and received.

Excessive verbal communication

has become so compulsive and widespread that

it is taken for granted as the only way to understand anything.

But real Understanding is of a different dimension

altogether.

So have sung poets, artists, and seers through

time immemorial ...
