Seeing
Once you can see reality, when you wake up in the morning you
won’t see anything you’ve ever seen before. When you
can truly see, perceive and taste something, you will see that
you have never actually seen it before. Then you know you are
looking without your mind. But as long as you recognize something,
in the sense of remembering it in the sense of giving it names
and labels, then it is not reality yet and you are not yet truly
seeing. To penetrate to reality involves a process of unlearning,
a shedding or a dropping away of mind, getting rid of all that
we know. (Diamond Heart Book 4, pg 144)
