Now onto the Receiver of Knowledge. Knowledge is awareness. Whether it is correct or incorrect Right or Wrong comes later. How are we of things or people? Either we experience them or we know of them already. When we see a Flower for the first time,as a child, we have been told at that time, that a Flower that has certain color, odor, shape is called a particular Flower., like a Rose. If its color was Rose, we told it is a Rose. But there are black Roses,therefore color alone is not the criterion. Then, odor,then we have artificial odors as well. If we keep on questioning, we will end up with nothing to identify a Rose. And if we strip away all these qualities or attributes, what is left? The same with all the objects. So experience does not give us knowledge, awareness. What about Reason, that is , that we know things on our own(so-called rationalism) First Reason something else to prove itself for a thing can not prove itself.
