beloved bhakti,
Love. Now man knows more about man than ever.
And yet no problem is solved.
It seems that something is basically wrong with
our so-called
knowledge itself.
This whole knowledge is derived from analysis.
And analysis is incapable of penetrating into the
depths of
consciousness
The Analytical method is all right with matter or
with
things.
Because there is no INSIDE to them.
But consciousness is INSIDENESS.
And to use the analytical method with consciousness
is to
treat it as an object, while it is not an object at all.
And it cannot be made an object
Its very nature is subjectivity.
Its being is subjectivity.
So it must not be approached from outside.
Because, then whatsoever is known about it is not
about it.
Consciousness must be approached from inside.
And, then the method is meditation and not analysis.
Meditation is synthetic.
It is concerned with the whole and not with the
parts.
It is subjective, and not objective.
It is irrational or super-rational, and not rational.
It is religious or mystic, and not scientific.
Authentic knowledge of consciousness comes only
through
meditation, and all else is just superficial aquaintance and
basically
erroneous because the very source of it is fallacious.
And, poisonous.
