Q

Knowing

A

Knowing is the condition of our awareness of reality integrated into the activity of life and living. Knowing is organizing acts.

Knowing is doing. For example, consider how we get know swimming. We could read about it, study it, watch videos, discuss it, and perhaps even practice on dry land and yet still we wouldn’t know swimming until we got into the water and tested our understanding through action. Furthermore, our fitness to swim could not be developed in a single attempt.
