Everything of our world revolves around sensory perceptions which gives rise to the activity of mind. Anything else is mere speculation, something reserved for the mystics. Nothing of ethereal nature, such as a permanent state of clear consciousness, has any use for us living in this world. You may know about your own true nature - but this knowledge remains circumscribed by the walls of concepts if it is not directly integrated into a dynamic self-sustaining state of being.

The content of the mind is the mind! What leads to that realization is detached observation.
