[QUOTE="Archived_member14, post: 133511, member: 586"] Jasdir ji, Quote: >>>And why would someone who has developed understanding not be able to express what he has come to understand? <<<, Can anybody define the taste of "Tea" with any other example without giving the example of "Tea", Some things are only subject to realizeations,<<< <end quote> OK, so what you are saying is that were you for example, to have experienced the ‘dimension of nothingness’ it would be impossible for you to explain to me what this is like, since all I know and can ever think in terms of is based on experiences within the sensual realm alone. And you are not saying that you would not be able to talk about the subject to someone else who might have had some experience of that particular dimension. Is this what you are saying? In any case your statements so far, have been mostly on very mundane matters which are conventions based on the experience through the five senses and mind. Besides, if you wish to lead anyone to understand ‘tea’, it is possible to talk about water, tea leaves and heat since after all; the understanding of tea involves not just what it tastes like, but the conditions leading to it coming to be. There is nothing which is not conditioned and has causes, and so it is always possible to lead others to understand anything at some level. “Understanding” is more than just experiencing, and it starts at the level of hearing and is why teachers of the Truth teach at all. It is wrong to suggest that the other person needs to have the ‘experience’ before there can be any meaningful communication. ========= Quote: >>>Now! what i have written in my obove lines is some nearby examples, But! what about "Mind", "He" always want's Matter, "Mind" always want's matter, "Mind" always start feel boring, When "He" is away from any matter,<<<<end quote> By ‘mind’ I think you mean ‘consciousness’.
