Why do people sometimes experience profound sudden epiphanies, ideas, insight, and intuition in moments of inner quietude? Because Silence,which has no shape or form whatsoever, is All-Knowing. And what would happen if we were to stop thinking and conceptualizing altogether, permanently? Pure Formless All-Knowing Awareness would shine forth, replacing what is currently thought to be "me".

But that would mean that the intellect is a huge limitation.
It would mean that all knowledge is redundant.
It would mean that all learning is non-essential.
It would mean that all words are worthless.
It would mean that all thought forms are needless.
It would mean that all concepts are irrelevant.
It would mean that all thinking is extraneous.
It would mean that the mind is unnecessary.
It would mean that all memories are inane.
It would mean that all mental associations are unimportant.
It would mean that all physical sense perceptions are irrelevant.
It would mean that all emotionalism is in vain.
It would mean that all wantingness and neediness is purposeless.
It would mean that all opinions are pointless.
It would mean that all beliefs are non-applicable.
It would mean that all views have no pertinence.
It would mean that all likes and dislikes are rendered obsolete.
It would mean that all thoughts are superfluous.
It would mean that the mind and body are not the real "me" at all.
It would mean that the physicality of this world has to be let go of.
It would mean that all other goals are a waste of time.

Are we able to accept that? For All-Knowing Awareness, one has to.
