is it possible to know anything? In regards to seeking, how will you know or even recognise for that matter, that which has been thought to be true yet still remains a mystery?

Might as well pack it in. Were all just blind men feeling up an elephant, guessing our a$ses off. There is no truth and that's the truth.

Just throw away your toolbox TM and you will see. Yes, the conceptual always requires evidence and no evidence is sufficient because there is no foundation that does not require evidence. There can be no objective proof that validates objectivity. That which is self evident, OTOH, is prior to conceptualization, and therefore does not require such evidence. (self evident)

"Willynilly is self evident?" that which has been thought to be true yet still remains a mystery? Just throw away your toolbox TM and you will see.

Would it be fair to say that Enigma and Reefs are together in the fact that there are no longer any life mysteries?

Some people have an internal "compass" that sometimes draws them to the truth, at any rate, recognizes certain aspects of truth when they encounter it. All concepts are at least once removed from reality, but if truth encountered is acted upon, the truth acts upon us, the map leads into the territory. Not easy but possible. A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. Theory first (concept), test and verify. Maybe the most difficult thing, not to be satisfied by imagination, maya. sdp

But years of sifting through various philosophies, both eastern and western, hasn't brought me nearer to an absolute. I'm more confused than anything.

That, in itself, is a good discovery, but don't let it make you cynical. It's a cliche, but the truth is within. There IS something to discover.

That, in itself, is a good discovery, but don't let it make you cynical. It's a cliche, but the truth is within. There IS something to discover. Ive heard it many times and I wish that I could make that discovery. But all I find within are thoughts ad infinitum. Thoughts about problems, like the problem of evil or the problem of beauty. And judgments against myself and others. As I've posted before, I'm skeptical of psychics. But when I was a bit more vulnerable I went to one who made 2 predictions that came true, and the third was that I would meet a lady that would help me be less judgmental. Why is non-judgment an imperative in the spiritual life?
