Start from not knowing

Start from not knowing

You have the capacity to start from not knowing, to meet the white page within yourself, the blank page, and anything that will come on top of it will come from it, not from you essentially.

And it doesn't mean that it comes from someone else or somewhere else or anything. The white page, the start from not knowing, is self-evolving. It is self-knowing. It is self-forgetting.

It is self-driving. Call it whatever you want. The only thing is that you are so afraid from finding out that. Because what would be the use of you? Your knowledge, your personality, your experiences, your

Capacities. It's a dreadful thought. You cannot take it. So whenever the opportunity is there, you choose not to start from not knowing. You choose to start from yourself, from your ideas, your preferences, your should and shouldn't do.

What you like, what you can reason, what you choose. And you ask, or not, but assuming you ask, what's wrong with that? What is the special quality of a start from not knowing within oneself? And the answer is for you to find

The only thing that can be said is that the new cannot come from the old. The new is that, is the start that is forever start, forever start from not knowing and it doesn't lead to knowledge. It leads to the immense beauty

Because even though it doesn't force itself upon you, you cannot play games with it, you cannot come to it with 99.999% freedom.

You have to be free from everything that you know, from everything that you take yourself to be. And a start from not knowing is the most beautiful, liberating encounter with the new.

And the new has a flow of its own. You are invited to walk by that beauty, by the side of it. But you cannot touch it, you cannot intervene, you cannot pose your demands, requests, suggestions. This is all futile.
