"If you want to be free, live in the realm of the unknown,

You enslave your Self when you live in the realm of the known.

Liberation comes when you slip out of bondage into the unknown.

You will know you're in the unknown because you will feel wonder.

It cannot be faked."

                                                        Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

"I am not seen but am the seer,

I am not heard but am the hearer.

I am not thought of but am the thinker,

never known but the knower, I am your self,

your inner director, your immortal one.

I am always and never all the time."

                                 Brihadaranyaka Upanishad

The wonder known in not knowing

is

the timeless

freedom from the known

Simply Being

the magic fire of life itself

crackling aliveness

expressed

by heat and flames

untouched by shallow names

Still

the silent knowing 

of all that is coming and going

is

constantly glowing
