Two simple questions

What is it to Know?


What is it to Understand?

Greetings..

I don't understand everything i know.. it is when i am capable of applying what i 'know' to the interconnected relationships of Life, that i 'feel' that there is understanding.. more so, when i can communicate the 'knowing' to another person..

Be well..

I like your post. Its kinda what I wanted to hear.

the way i see it is

To have knowledge is to know what this or that is..But you can know what this or that is,and still not understand it.
It is like mystery.Alot of people kind of "know" (such as myself) what IS LIKE to be totaly liberated and free, but only few really understands it. Because they are experiencing it without any interpetations of the mind, such as thinking of how it is, instead
they are experiencing it with naked being, with what they truly are.. Everything they want to be and nothing they can become.

Good points . We can know by observing and seeing what is . Seeing and knowing of a thing is enhanced when we also see how things interact with other things . We understand things better this way.
