Thomas,so succinctly stated, thank you.
.In a sense," knowing" if knowing is done thru the defense/fixation structure
is just another mildly "Luciferic" illusional experience that the knower takes
as real. To me as Bert's Heart of the Matter explores, this awareness of an
awareness that is aware of our 'I" is where the "shift" that creates the field
of forgiveness happens. It is a burdenless burden.

When we think we know that the darkness is merely dark, we don't experience
it directly, phenomenologically. When we are willing to step into not knowing
and to actually experience the empty darkness that we have so long avoided,
one finds that it isn't actually dark at all. The presence that is looking
through our eyes is the light in the darkness. That is the 'Treasure in the
Darkness.'

knowledge you have not, you must go by a way in which you know not."

Jung said it is in the darkness that the great light is found...not sure
what he meant by it..perhaps someone has an idea?
