There Is A Condition We Cannot Talk About

There is a condition we cannot talk about.
Talking about it only goes so far, and then stops.
That’s what philosophers do.

Pure experience is beyond talk.

There is a huge difference between knowing about something, and just knowing. Knowing is beyond words; knowing about uses words which are second-hand.

The difference is between exoteric understanding and esoteric understanding. As long as we just read and repeat words, we’ll only get an idea, and talk about it.

People will say, “So-and-so said this … ”. That’s just someone else’s account and, like the whispering gallery, meanings can become distorted. That’s why we can find it difficult to truly communicate. Believing the words written down in a book makes us followers and philosophers, and we shut down our minds.

The experience of pure awareness – which is pure consciousness – is non-verbal. There is nothing to talk about, as there are no words. In a non-verbal moment, much is realised about our mind, or another’s attributes.

Having said that, it’s still good to have a conscious talk, which can lead to a deeper understanding of the incomprehensible. 🙂

What is a conscious conversation?
It’s neither academic nor religious.

It’s …?
Test it and see how it is.

It’s a constant refinement of the unintelligible.
