Reading a quick article on that...

I'm not sure how that, but I specifically, is related to the experiential knowledge you referenced earlier.

But I suppose that's not at all surprising since I don't know enough about it.

If you dont know, you don't know 🤷‍♀️

Yes, nor will I since I cannot and will not trust my own experience for the same reason I cannot and will not trust any one else's: humans are flawed and very easily led astray, especially when wandering in places we are not meant to wander. Because we are finite, because we are limited and so intimately connected to our bodies, any time we are outside of our bodies (and yes, I believe that is not only possible but inevitable), we cannot understand, process, or accurately express much of what would be experienced during those "times." (I use time very loose lysine in this case.)

Without an understanding of the basics of the rest of what is seen, it is exceptionally easy to be deceived by what is perceived. Perception is not truth. It is not absolute for us humans.

Get curious Beave. Turn those beliefs you have into knowledge of something bigger. Vipassana courses are free to attend. Check out dharma .org

Nope. Thank you, but I'm good. I am curious enough and have means to explore the whole of everything without needing to put my being at risk. I reject the notion of the "don't knock it till you try it."

I'm not knocking it. I take it on faith and belief that I have no need to try it, and that doing so jeopardizes my being.

I tried 🤷‍♀️😂 P.s. I'm not c9nvinced you're not a bot 😂

You're not the first to say that, but... I have two witnesses on nostr that I am not, in fact, a bot.

If you'll permit me to be a bit snarky, without any meanness meant: neither do you. 🤣

Hahahaa it's not snarky. I understand how someone with no experience would think like that

Why does one need experience to think? (Thinking well is a skill that comes from practice, but, we are inherently born to think, amongst other things.)

Knowing isn't thinking

Correct.

But thinking can lead to knowing, and it can deepen and extend knowing.

Knowing also isn't the be all and end all of existence.
