The Tao of Paradox | Part 1: The Only Thing I Know For Sure

in philosophy •  8 years ago 

There are 4 states:

State 1) The Only Thing I Know For Sure Is That I Don't Know Anything For Sure.
State 2) Based on state 1's "emptiness" state in your mind , you start the journey to know Anything's true nature.
State 3) Even you know For Sure Things true nature , but you still not thinking that you know Anything For Sure.
State 4) Based on state 3, you probally have the real chance to know Anything For Sure.

This is more a brain teaser.I am understanding it as more of a stepping up process. I do believe there there is a 5th state or the Ayn Soph the state in which there is complete nothingness; because the first state although empty is still a EURIKA moment. The idea in itself that you don't know anything for sure is still a state of mind.

Insightful view.

Until we are oneness with The Ultimate, maybe we still have Xth state to go , and X could be 6..7..8..9.....99......999999........ -)

So the state 1 is important foundation stone.

I agree, however my point was the state of 0
to me, is the unknowable perhaps that which sits beyond the vail of our lowly perception. Some refer to that as the creator of all :)

Welcome to the paradox. :)
