Guest guest Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Humans are inveterate, incorrigible objectifiers, there are few abstract words to which we don't assign an imaginary referent. So when someone says that realizing is unknowing, we take unknowing as a placeholder for Self, or Brahman or what not. But unknowing means what it means: a complete lack of knowledge, in which sensations float naked without the artificial illumination of explanations. The light of knowledge is the mother of all mirages, only absolute darkness never lies. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
