understand and comprehend - the mind as a mirror

last week and are the memories of yesterday lived two concepts as they dance before my eyes: Understanding. Understand. So start giving a breakdown of meaning.

understand, and reasoning ability to organize around a theme.

understand, and realizing it, become one with the object of attention.

Understanding requires

know the meaning of concepts and at what point.

Understanding implies empathy with some aspect or issue without having to build an argument about it.

The understanding allows dissect an issue and make a lot of words, descriptions, inferences and reasoning.

Understanding can remain silent simply embracing a situation, a stillness that comprises, includes notes without trial.

Understanding is linear. The understanding places no limits.

The understanding can reach a point when it comes to deep questions about the reality of being, which fails to set the tone on the sacred infinitude of the Divine. And then you may be going transcends understanding, the realization of the ineffable and indescribable. Understanding can occur in an instant, like a flash, without a rational process and not rely on memory products.

In my conversations with R. Malak, and are consistent and regular basis and converted into a practice Daily, I often like walking a tightrope.

Like two opposing samurai swordsmen or sharpening the dagger of self-knowledge, he is concerned with moving from side to side to achieve the balance that allows you to walk with ease on the tightrope of the expression of the essential. As can be seen in the specification that I just about these two concepts, comprehend and understand, "I'm fascinated by words and use them to convey something deep inside me moves. In this "turn to" ... look inside, listen to what is covered and content, latent, wanting to be lighting. Ideas flit, feelings, memories, impressions and emotions that are stained with them and need to be dropped, released, expressed.

What makes a volcano? Dump all their fiery contents. It can be fascinating to watch from afar a rash, but is devastating if you're at his side. And that's how I noticed that my face many times burn the wings of the birds that try to take their first flight near me. This worried me, and observing the ability of R. Malak, I'm finding some fascinating ways that can accommodate that is just opening the eyes, dazzle with some lights directly ahead of time, which can burn your retinas.

But something happens to me in these discussions. And not in terms of skills on the outside or the expression ... but about the very understanding. The linearity of thought can form an endless wire, as if a fisherman's line is infinite. Catch a fish, a concept, some way, and the line gets caught in it, and then stretched and stretched, tensions the cord may be enduring. There comes a time when discerning sound, which produces a blurring strain, because after all, the intention of catching the fish Truth, is unable to do so. The attention is engaged, and despite a lot of insight, understanding does not occur, and what happens is a wear and dulling. Drop the cane hurts so carefully has worked, when faced with the impossibility of so much pretension to Embrace the Truth with reason. The leaves dulling the senses, reason, and all capacity for empathy, as void, is a prison, a hypnotic situation where communication soon becomes impossible.

... ... ... ... ... ... ...

some ancient sages have said that the discernment Goldthorn serves to remove the thorn wood ignorance itself, but once this is done, removed the initial confusion, we must release both bones, and therefore have no use or meaning.

Another analogy with regard to use of a wooden stick to stir the embers. In the fire of understanding, to keep it alive, we use the rational discrimination suit, but once consumed the coals, the stick is released in burning them to finish.

... ... ... ... ...

Many search for years a clearly offering the certainty of what can be called as true, which is totally real. Behind studies, practices, teachers, lectures, and yet having perhaps arrived at maturity, hanging like a fruit tree diversity has not been charged enough this fruit to fall to the floor of the longed-understanding.

For these fruits on condition of softness, sweetness, and proper maturity, it's sat guru, and gives them the bite where finally the last lock to the confusion is annihilated. Satguru, the Sanskrit word for pure knowledge of Himself, whether in the form of teacher as outsider, or as either the own knowledge of Himself which rises in the candidate who is ready to release the last crust or skin : the idea of \u200b\u200bseparate self.

... ... ... ... ... ....

answer, with complete detachment of the cherished concepts, given the conceptual vacuum in the silent embrace of understanding, vertigo occurs as a delicacy, release and letting go into lit expansion of a diluted mind. Exquisite display of pure knowledge, which knows nothing of himself. As the wave that made its way into the ocean water was provided. Some waves gently dissolve, others burst at the edge of the limits, beyond repair.

As sleep happens without one it proposed, state of absolute rest, where nothing is known ... also happens to delivering essential knowledge. Liberation and total relief of all stress, that no state where there is only knowledge, not something, but as the absolute brightness of the power that allows us to know. A witnessing that was always there, shining all conscious contents, such as a flashlight in the darkness of a deposit is marking and highlighting all that is stored. The mind darkens, shade the whole produced the dual contrasts.

Yesterday Malak I described it as a window or a mirror. A window with clear glass, you can observe the diversity of the exterior, the street, landscape, people who pass through the pedestrian walkway. This glass, suddenly faced with a sudden situation of total introspection, it becomes a mirror, and when night falls and no one can grasp the content of external world, the senses are only for internal content. This mind, as a window of knowledge, shimmers, allowing the glow of light that comes from within, and reflects only my own image: light of knowledge ... and there ... it absorbs all the movement that was variable in reality permanent to be what we know , dissolved the image, dissolved the duality, not a separate entity, but the very light of pure knowledge, as Being-Consciousness dump complete happiness.

What I am writing today is the result of a deep soft interaction (which moved many contents of my understanding) lived in three hours Sunday with R. Malak talks given at different times day, and it was with this text that closed the busy day Malak:

" My ways are not theoretical descriptions fatten the mind, are foods that are to be consumed immediately, may not be combined, resemble the consuming fire, unstable and difficult to understand. Gather information seems important, but is in the books, there are thousands of them very well written. The words plant seeds that one day sprout in various plants producing flowers and fruits different, but it takes time, and it is time to cut the joints with the conceptual structures that keep us trapped and imprisoned ideas. The Self is different from that mentioned as you or me. The mind, as a function of consciousness, divides, makes judgments. All as manifestations is the only existence, this is a knowledge which he consumes read. The mind is complicated by reflections about the indescribable, and has no other choice of mirrors and stop being transparent to the gaze of Himself. When this occurs beyond their own boundaries and is lost in the light that is reflected in an endless harmony and intelligence. "R. Malak.

spent the night, the new day, and everything is crystal displays. After being placed on the grill of the penetrating inquiry, my dear concepts are cooked over low heat, and out of my hands, delivered, given, released today ... and I have resumed with another provision, a lighter open, loose for share this very exciting it is, first understand and then be pure understanding.
