1)Knowledge
2)Beliefs
3)Thinking/Questioning
4)Faith/Knowing
5)???
Kinda interesting to think about for a bit and do my own thing
with it. I took faith and knowing as equal or almost similar.
Like faith is knowing all is for the best even if it doesn't
appear that way. Like deep down knowing you're on the right
"path" even when things appear to be going astray.

Maybe I have confused you, but I want to focus and keep it as
simple as possible, and it really is simple.

Thanks for the replies, to all of you.
I found myself contemplating of what you said and got stuck a
bit. I want to go further and have a sense that, in this case,
its just due to language barriers.
Is 'it' even simpler and plainer than 'being aware of what is'?
Without one who is aware or some place where the awareness lies
like the example of the happenings in front of a camera, but the
camera is also a happening.
Maybe this is just getting deeper in step 4, the 'knowing part'.
Maybe this is for the me who wants to understand it
intellectually. But i dont want my thoughts rotate in a circle.

I think, if I had to place myself somewhere along this
spectrum....I think it'd be somewhere amidst a believing moving
towards an intermittent knowing....that's slowly (soooooo
slowly!) learning how to keep the heat (awareness) beneath the
pot so the knowing can persistently simmer.
Something within suspects that this is the way it will
be....keeping the low flame beneath burning steadily.....keeping
the coals stoked....until realization precipitates from the
roux.

In the depths of heart there is a nonphysical space, where God
dwells. Sweetness channels out from this Presence to all sides
of heart, like sun-beams spread the light of sun all around.
This sweetness is stronger than light. It gives me much closer
taste of Truth. What I taste, touch and smell is more authentic
than what I see or hear. Seeing and hearing connects me with the
object but a distance is maintained. But when I put a drop of
nectar on my tongue or I touch the fur of my lovely cat or I
smell the rose flower—they give me a closer experience, immanent
experience. It means that mind gives you only light, it connects
you with the object but a distance is maintained. Heart connects
you with sweetness of Truth [God], it gives you a living sense
of connectivity. Also, it can be taken as the difference between
knowledge and realization.

Entertainment is all about going outside and inner-tainment is
all about going inside. Inner-tainment is living a life deeply
rooted in divine presence. Both actions cannot be made
simultaneously—it is against the laws of nature. No one can go
higher and lower at the same time. No one can expand and
contract at the same time. Mind goes out and seeks for light,
heart seeks for sweetness of companionship. This is the
difference.
