Stu (OP) User ID: 62294378 United States 09/21/2014 06:42 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Consider what you know. You do not even know what a single thing is. Then rest-abide in that Ignorance, as whatever is the case, not within what arises, but as what arises, as the body itself, whatever is the case altogether (which is not knowable, but with which one is identical). Rest in that Presence. I am Witness. Radiate as whole body happiness. Be happy as the body altogether. Look, feel, act, be completely happy as whatever is the case, whatever the body is altogether, under the conditions of whatever is Persist in this under all conditions. When you are free to know nothing and be nothing then you may hear what is truth and so become a devotee of the Unknown in eternal and always present Divine Ignorance. _____________________________________ Even the structure of the atom has been found by the mind.
