To seek knowledge is the nature of the mind.
This is the cause of ignorance.
Without the idea of knowledge,
where is ignorance?
In the world of appearances,
knowledge is useful.
It is useful to know how to cook and knot rope.
Ignorance of practical matters
is overcome by practice.
In the realm of the Absolute,
knowledge is unknown.
Nothing to know, no one to know it.
Ignorance of the Absolute
is overcome by surrender.
