The following talk was given at the Insight Meditation Center in Redwood City, California.

So, hello and welcome to this series on Insight.

And so today I'm talking about the fourth category of insight of the five different

major categories.

And so the first is personal insight that's unique to each individual.

The second is insight into a way of seeing clearly that in any given moment there are two things.

There's experience we have and the knowing of it, the

recognition of it. And so the experience itself in the most fundamental basic way is the

way it's experienced through the sense doors. And so that sensing and feeling and then knowing, recognizing what that is.

So that begins to tease things apart that are often entangled.

And that tangle that we live in of

generally sometimes called perception is,

there's a third element that makes it really sticky or more

a solid ball of knots

is the self who perceives, the self that's experiencing things.

So if I see a advertisement for the next greatest revolutionary technological device.

And it just kind of appears on maybe the screen and commercial.

And that just comes and goes.

And it's actually moving, shifting, changing scenery as they talk about this new device with great ways.

But I immediately kind of lock in to the device, and I'm the one who's hearing it.

I would like to have it.
