The Importance of Knowing

We want to be able to distinguish knowing from the object. It's two different things. They're different and distinct, but not separable. And as we continue the practice, you know, and our perception of impermanence becomes more and more refined. There are times when we can see the momentary dissolution of consciousness. We are really seeing the impermanence in the flow of moments of knowing. The knowing we see this is direct experience that consciousness itself is just dissolving like water over a waterfall.
