Cognition
Since there is no differentiation in pure presence, its knowing
is the first knowing, the origin of cognition. We see that the
origin of cognition is the experience of being, or more precisely,
the dimension of pure presence. Knowing begins with being, which
is the knowing of being. It becomes clear to us in the realization
of the dimension of pure presence that the origin of cognitive
capacity of mind is the knowingness of Being. (Inner Journey Home,
pg 309)

As we directly and experientially recognize that each aspect
is a concept, it dissolves and reveals the nondifferentiated ground
of pure presence. Each essential aspect reveals itself to be a
conceptual differentiation of pure presence, conceptual not in
the representational sense but as a discrimination in basic knowledge.
Each aspect is a differentiated and discriminated form in basic
knowledge. Each of the aspects reveals itself as a universal discrimination,
a natural cognitive differentiation of true nature itself. (Inner
Journey Home, pg 312)
