What takes place in experiencing? First, there is a recognition of what you are experiencing. If you recognise, it is already known, and therefore it is not new. If you are craving great experiences, especially religious or mystical, you must be able to recognise them, otherwise it has no value. And when you do recognise, the very act of recognition is the act of the known. Therefore it is not new. Therefore the desire for more experience, wider, blissful experiences, breeds illusion. And there, there is no truth, no reality. Or one experiences on rare occasions, suddenly, something extraordinary. One wants it repeated, holds onto it, is desperately attached to it, and therefore one lives on a dead memory and longing. A mind demanding greater experiences is bound to be caught in illusion and various forms of hypocrisies.
