Defined Ignorance

One of my friends asked what is meant by the term "defined ignorance". When I write these blogs they are an expression of my own realizations. It is sometimes difficult to phrase reality so that it becomes an understanding that is not the result of experience. Words are not understanding, they are purely representational. They point to a reality that has to be realized in the moment by the individual. When you have a realization about yourself that is not the result of experience...i.e. the past, then it is solely your truth. Truth that is the outcome of the unconditioned. The unconditioned is a consciousness that is not personal but rather a oneness of all existence. That oneness is forever unknown it cannot be defined or "known". It is the experiencing of the absolute moment, in which beginning and ending are simultaneous. In a manner of speaking there is no separation or demarcation or defined limitation.


So it can be said that "defined ignorance" is the whole field of thought that limits. Ones limitations are self induced. Actually existence has no limitations. To live without limitation is to be free of all the minds cravings. Cravings that create the pigeon hole of ones conditioned existence. A persons accumulations, both the psychological and the material, contribute to a life lived in a prison of "defined ignorance". While we have now more or less defined what it "means" to live in defined ignorance, its actual in the moment realization is an original experiencing by the individual which cannot be defined. Because it is a negation of thoughts illusion of knowing it is forever unknown. Its all about freedom and realizing the truth of it, not though some defined "doing" or " attainment" but seeing for the first time the reality of the true self. The true self is undefinable, it is an absence of all that limits. The individual can realize the truth of it, but cannot convey its essence through thoughts reasoning process. You cannot read about it or be lectured about it and understand. It has to be an experiencing in the moment. Essentially words and groups of words can tell you what it is not but not what it is. The individual must see that when all is negated as the illusion of self then what is left is the truth. Because truth is undefinable in terms of the known, it cannot be reasoned into existence and understood as "something" conceptual or spiritual or whatever ones illusioned belief perpetuates. It is, when all else is not.
