The Representational
Knowledge is representational not actual as such it can never be the reality of the moment. Knowledge can only intimate and postulate it can never realize the truth of the absolute moment as an abstraction. This simple fact can lead a person to an understanding that realizes the necessity for the negation of thought as the known, the illusion of the self created and the self centered. Mind as thought, the accumulation of abstract ideal, understands through the activity of intimidation. The fear of what might happen or be as the result of not believing or projecting the known. There is security in the known because it is the projected repetition of the familiar and predictable. When thought can predict a desired outcome then one feels that one exist in a world that is known. But the reality is something quite apart from thoughts desired result. Because thought is constantly seeking the repetitive known it is always in a state of varying degrees of conflict. The projected ideals of a mind that must know creates an atmosphere of fear and apprehension. Allowing the moment to be what it is, is simply being aware of thoughts projection and its desire to escape into the known as a representation of the past.
There is the peace of an all encompassing freedom that is not an activity of self ideation. It comes uninvited, without cause or result. Mind cannot "know it" or seek it for it is beyond definition. Yet it is ever present within and without all that is. It is experiencing the moment without the one who experiencing. In that eternal moment is the realization of the true self...al-one-ness (aloneness) and the dissipation of all conflict and fear.
