This sounds nihilistic... :/

Reality is fundamentally unknown. The trouble is that we take what we know to be real, and we are afraid to lose it.
-
Regardless if you feel reality is known or unknown why do you feel surrendering is mature?
-
...Basically what I'm saying is you are incorrect. Maturity has nothing to do with acquiescence. Rather, it has to do with perspective and understanding. Or said another way, how much truth one can see in reality. :)
-
I did not say maturity is acquiescence. Perspective and understanding, however valid or useful, is conditional, bounded knowledge. Beyond it and your experience is the unknown. Maturity is knowing oneself; it is not conceptual but a lived truth only encountered in the unknown.
-
...Ummm, to be clear did you say, "maturity is the readiness to surrender everything to the unknown?"
#Acquiescence -
acquiescence noun the reluctant acceptance of something without protest. Reluctance and readiness are antithetical. You not only continue to interpret my statement wrongly but you are also not using analogous terms.
-
You are obviously too smart for me. Because it seems like you are talking in circles trying to validate your ego, as opposed to the original idea you put forth.

I wish I could relate to what ever it is you mean. I don't know if It's because I'm not smart enough or because it is in english.
-
It's just a more poetic way of saying that maturity is knowing yourself, and that knowledge is not static but a lived truth experienced in encountering the unknown and dancing with it. By having nothing to lose you gain everything there is to have.
