Gaining Knowledge...

To gain Knowledge is why we are here, but,is it a means to an end?.. Knowledge is our Essence and yet we strive for more and are annoyed when there is no end.. Once again, it becomes an attachment.. another reason for reincarnation.. another method to keep You from Realizing Self.. Self is found in silence and non-thinking.. The mind bubbles up with thoughts to convince You that the illusion is real.. You must go beyond the mind into Nothingness.. No Thought.. No Desire.. Just Reality... you must become non-existent.. The irony is that Knowledge does not bring Freedom, only Non-Thought and Surrender of Thought(ego) brings Freedom.........namaste, thomas
