The word is not the thing. The image is not the thing. The concept is not the thing. The memory is not the thing.
So, what then is the thing? It can be experienced but not known. You can taste it but not speak it. You can speak it but not hear it. You can hear it but not see it. You can see it but not touch it. You can touch it but not conceive it. It is what it is not.
This is the secret… this is the key; to know it as unknowable. Only then will you experience it – whatever “it” is.
The word “green” is not green. The image “green” is not green. The concept “green” is not green. The memory “green” is not green.
So, what then is green? It is what it is not. This is the secret… this is the key; to know it as unknowable. Only then will you experience it – whatever “it” is.
