Grope

Suppose there is a dark room. One man knows in which corner his luggage is kept, so he goes in the right direction. A second man who doesn't know gropes in all directions, and he may or may not find his things. In the same way, one person gropes his way through life while another goes straight toward the goal and reaches it. The difference between worldly and spiritual knowledge is like the difference between talking and actually seeing. It's the difference between supposing and knowing. Without Knowledge, you have to imagine your chosen ideal of meditation, no matter what it is.
