whole becoming whole via intense separation.

First there is an unconscious separation of person and world.

Then the person is given the idea of an undivided whole, named Tao, Buddha mind, enlightenment or such a name.

This brings out the unconscious separation to a raging and full-blown conscious separation.

The idea of a complete perfection versus this separate self in a world.

This is the tool to awaken the person from their unconscious state.

When the conscious separation has become so intense, then the person is blown into the state of not-knowing, only-being.

As the ultimate state can not be known (as knowing is dual) - it can only BE.
