"Now, freedom from all that, is freedom from the known; it is the state of a mind which says, "I do not know", and which is not looking for an answer. Such a mind is completely not seeking not expecting; and it is only in this state that you can say, "I understand". It is the only state in which the mind is free, and from that state you can look at the things that are known - but not the other way round. From the known you cannot possibly see the unknown; but when once you have understood the state of a mind that is free (...) from that state you can function, you can be a citizen, you can be married, or what you will. Then what you do has relevance, significance in life." Jiddu Krishnamurti (Saanen, 11th July 1963)

"Questioner: How do I get at it?
Maharaj: You need not get at it, for you a r e it. It will get at you, if you give it a chance. Let go your attachement to the unreal and the real will swiftly and smoothly step into its own." Nisargadatta Maharaj ("I Am That", p. 3)
