The knowledge we \u00e2\u20ac\u0153know\u00e2\u20ac\u009d sometimes lacks vigor and vitality because it fails to touch our heart or affect our conduct. TSK invites us to make a transition from conceptual knowledge to knowledge active in our being. The TSK vision is dedicated to the exploration of time, space, and knowledge as facets of human being.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The key to activating the vision is inquiry. We can use imagination, visualization, speculation, common sense \u00e2\u20ac\u201c whatever helps to sharpen our questions and awaken our intelligence.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">TSK vision relies on inquiry as a path of knowledge, but inquiry must be guided. With this in mind, it may help to think in terms of three aspects of the vision. The first is <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">inquiry itself<\/span>, the active dynamic that brings the vision alive. The second is <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">analysis and exploration of the limits<\/span> we experience in our usual way of being and acting: inquiry focused in a specific direction. And the third is an evocation and <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">activation of ways of being that transcend these limits<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">TSK vision allows an opportunity to reorient our thinking and to begin looking at our ordinary experience in light of the possibility that it might all happen very differently. We gain a more balanced view regarding the limits of our material emphasis, as well as a discernment of what is necessary to complement and fulfill it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">As we drop the limits of our understanding and of our experience, we become more open and our resistance fades. The less the word \u00e2\u20ac\u0153impossible\u00e2\u20ac\u009d is used, more open our mind will be. As our mind accepts new ways of seeing reality, our body becomes more relaxed. This is so because body and mind are intimately related. Look at the phrase below, for example.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Without departing from zero, without requiring a body, the exhibition can serve the purpose.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d DTS 28 This phrase amazes me; without requiring a body!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">But, through careful inquiry, we can see that when space is experienced fully, it is possible to experience space inside the body, and ultimately, our body without borders. In the book Visions of Knowledge we are invited to investigate the space before occupation, the nature of empty space, the experience of space, etc., and see that space is present with or within all appearance. It is our limited vision of seeing only space between objects that prevents us to perceive space in other ways. Accepting as possible space \u00e2\u20ac\u0153within\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, we can experience space and let it pervade our experience. The moment space is focused and perceived, the experience is only space, and the body and its borders disappear.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">What I am aware of becomes my reality, what I am not, fades away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TSK can be understood as a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153methodology\u00e2\u20ac\u009d for questioning and challenging conventional understanding.
