simple or complicated - choose

Understanding and knowledge all relate to the past................when we learn, we are learning of an occurence that has already happened.  When we try to understand we are seeking to understand a thought or a collection of  thoughts that has already been 'thought'............ i ask myself "should i leave the quest for knowledge and let go of the desire to understand?"  Only remaining in each moment and becoming aware of that moment, as in each moment what happens becomes the happening, becomes life. 

With all the knowledge and understanding out of the way, what is it that remains?  i could give it a label, call it the presence, or intelligence, or creation itself..............what remains is that the meaning of life............ this is the question asked many times over, the answer is so simple that it looses its worldly glamour, charm and excitement............and once again the conditioning in the guise of worldly distractions and pre-occupations complicates life...............
