Moving to higher knowledge, a knowing not centered in the self, seems to require an awakening and a letting go.
As the self initially stretches to allow for ways of knowing that found it, permeate it, and transcend it, it invites in more knowledge. It seems like as this process continues and builds (in lower time), an awakening is initiated where more knowledge permeates the self and softens it’s borders/my borders. At the same time, the self is/I am faced with letting go more and more – in lower time choices and in lower knowledge positions – to this awakening of higher knowledge.
From the self’s perspective/from my perspective, this is a significant change in orientation that touches the borders of what the self thinks of as death. The self is no longer solid, with the potential of no longer being a story that solidifies. The whole world changes also and is no longer solid, no longer an objective given. In addition to this world gaining fluidity and losing solidity, the self is opening to knowledge that is ‘beyond’ this world and is available to be explored. Now where is the center?
I can ‘see and touch’ that Knowledge is within and everywhere and shows space and time to be ultimately intimate. Maybe I can float in this. As I let go and Knowledge continues its awakening.
