Guest guest Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 As long as you are engrossed in the world, you are unable to know yourself; to know yourself, turn your attention from the world and turn it within. You need no more experiences. The past ones are sufficient. And if you feel the need for more, look into the hearts of people around you. You will find a variety of experiences which you would not be able to go through in a thousand years. Most of the people vegetate, but do not live. They merely gather experiences and enrich their memory. But experience is a denial of Reality, which is neither sensory nor conceptual, neither of the body nor of the mind, though it includes and transcends both. Realization by itself is not an experience, though it may lead to a new dimension of experiences. It is the discovery of the timeless factor in every experience. It is awareness, that makes experience possible. Go to the root of all experience, to the sense of being. The permanent is beyond all comings and goings.
