| There they are unfree and respond unconsciously, never knowing why they act, react, think, feel, and hold | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| the image, yet go on reacting blindly, without knowing it. The fleeting insight of the moment the | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| The highest phase on this particular scale is knowing. There is a great difference between understanding and | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| There is a great difference between understanding and knowing. Understanding means ascertaining the causes and effects of | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| But this understanding is not the same as knowing. I advisedly use the term knowing, rather than | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| same as knowing. I advisedly use the term knowing, rather than knowledge. For knowledge is something much | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| I am talking about. I am talking about knowing the truth. When you know the truth, you | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| something starts to happen within and around you. Knowing is not theoretical understanding. It is experiencing the | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| not theoretical understanding. It is experiencing the truth. Knowing the truth behind the untruth must connect the | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| knower with the great spiritual principles and laws. Knowing them opens up the world. Knowing divine principles | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| and laws. Knowing them opens up the world. Knowing divine principles can come about only through a | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| literature -- you cannot possibly know the truth. Knowing the truth means personally following through the stages | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| understanding why they exist and what they cause; knowing the truth behind the automatism caused by specific | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| of creation, of the universe as a whole. Knowing the truth in the way of personal experience | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| presents itself, a concrete possibility, for choosing liberation. Knowing the truth means already being in possession of | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| In the evolution of one single point of knowing there comes a moment when it becomes all-knowing | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| all the many parts. Hence, really and fully knowing one truth is knowing all truth, be it | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| Hence, really and fully knowing one truth is knowing all truth, be it only for an instant | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| have made first steps toward the threshold of knowing; they can now cross it. Others will follow | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| must find your own inner measurements; forget comparisons. Knowing the truth means mastery over the universe. It | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| does not yet lead to more constructive changes. Knowing the truth makes the change organic, inevitable, so | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| just could not be any other way. Really knowing the truth clears the fog; it unifies apparent | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| a simple example of the healing value of knowing the truth, to make my words more practical | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| Even if you refrain from quarreling, your not knowing what motivates them creates a cloud of unrest | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| what you know to another person's attention. Your knowing the truth behind the other person's confusing actions | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| sensitive directives one needs to contribute with one's knowing, at the right time and in the right | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| love and respect others. The same applies to knowing. Those who do not know the truth behind | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| know the truth behind another person's confusions. True knowing and relating removes all havoc. I am sure | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| from life causes a lack of understanding and knowing. As long as you withdraw in fear, not | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| you must learn to bring under control by knowing truth. A similar confusion exists concerning self-centeredness versus | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| When you cross the threshold from understanding to knowing, you find the deep experience and perception of | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| to come near the threshold between understanding and knowing. Perhaps you could say something about the fear | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| one has, although one knows there is a knowing beyond it and one knows it is a | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| approach the threshold to the fourth state -- knowing. The way to determine this is by the | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| how change is possible. Understanding gives this outlook. Knowing has accomplished it and is constantly accomplishing it | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| into more experience and more self-expression. Therefore constant knowing effects constant growth. When evaluating where you stand | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| your work bring all of you nearer to knowing. May some of you make the first steps | 127 EVOLUTION'S FOUR STAGES: AUTOMATIC REFLEXES, AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING, KNOWING |
| questioning it. You echo something blindly, without quite knowing why. And if you are challenged, you feel | 128 LIMITATIONS CREATED THROUGH ILLUSORY ALTERNATIVES |
| in ignorance of the power inherent in your knowing, and by not having a concise formulation of | 128 LIMITATIONS CREATED THROUGH ILLUSORY ALTERNATIVES |
| for this strength is an effortless strength. By knowing the truth, you must discover that you are | 128 LIMITATIONS CREATED THROUGH ILLUSORY ALTERNATIVES |
| giving up of the limited choice. It means knowing the truth that love and self-assertion can coexist | 129 WINNER VERSUS LOSER: INTERPLAY BETWEEN THE SELF AND CREATIVE FORCES |
| and therefore as a still unrealized fact. This knowing makes it possible for the potential to be | 129 WINNER VERSUS LOSER: INTERPLAY BETWEEN THE SELF AND CREATIVE FORCES |
| remove the underlying obstructions and no-currents. Gradually the knowing of the truth will spread to the inner | 129 WINNER VERSUS LOSER: INTERPLAY BETWEEN THE SELF AND CREATIVE FORCES |
