Any knowledge of any kind
that you think you have
can only be in consciousness.

How can the consciousness which came later
give you any knowledge about that state which
exists prior to consciousness’ arrival?

Any thought that you have reached,
or are going to reach that state
which exists prior,
is false.

Whatever happens in consciousness
is purely imaginary, a hallucination.

Therefore keep in mind the knowledge
that it is consciousness in which
everything is happening.

With that knowledge, be still,
do not pursue any other thoughts
which arise in consciousness.
