Not everything can be explained in words. You cannot describe the color yellow to a blind man so that he can picture it for himself. You would also fail if you tried to write about sound to a deaf person. No matter what words you use, it will not be successful. Us humans are so dependent on language because it helps us communicate. Unfortunately we have confused the world of symbols, metaphors or concepts with the actual real world. A lot of the wisdom of this world is unspoken. This is why in Buddhism and the Dao they say "he who speaks does not know and he who does not speak, knows". It is also why they put emphasis on silencing the mind and internal chatter. The christian word for the kind knowledge that could not be spoken about was gnosis. Not all of you will understand what I have written bellow but your higher self will.
True gnosis is knowledge of the words that no lips have uttered and no pen has written. It is that which no ear has heard and no eye has read. The indescribable but knowable. It is what we have all seen but forgotten. It is something we crave to remember. It is the origin of all value or meaning we perceive and without it nothing is meaningful. With it we are alive and without it we are dead even though living. It is itself the meaning we perceive in our existence. It was with us from the beginning and it is us. It came to dwell upon ourselves but we perceived it not. We own it but no body part has ever brushed up against it. We have searched for it in the world but found it not. Yet it has followed us wherever we have looked for it. It is where ever you turn your head. Like the thin air that surrounds you, it is present but neither of your hands may grab it. Despite this, you hold it.
