A spirit teacher shares His understanding of timeless wisdom.
He tells me that knowing is not a matter of faith, and yet
there can be no knowing without faith.
What has faith to do with knowing?
How do we learn?
Through experience.
Yes, but not through experience alone.
We reflect on past experiences and use what we
have learned from them as foundations for future …
Future what?
To guide us in our responses to future challenges.
And if what experience has taught you differs from
what others would claim to be the way to live?
This is developing beyond intellectual concepts.
Yes.
Then please explain.
Knowing is awareness.
Awareness of what?
Awareness of what seems to be true, for us, if for
no other.
Where does faith come in?
We each, in time, develop faith in our own knowing,
or awareness; of our own truth.
