idea, which is beyond the capacity of these five senses.
The whole process of meditation is asking us to go beyond these five senses. That is why the knowledge gained through meditation is called Aparoksha jnana. For this we have to turn inward consciously and in the awareness of the inward consciousness also our thoughts are unfortunately constructs from sensory inputs. We are not capable of having thoughts which can go beyond these senses. Our consciousness is unfortunately confined to either direct inputs now or inputs that we have already received and stored in our heads as some ideas relating to certain things. Those ideas are again sensory in content and knowledge.
Non-sensory knowledge is some thing that we do not have. Secondly we have experiences of more than one sensory input at a time. We have got Multi- sensory inputs also. But non-sensory input is difficult and our demand is for the non-sensory. It is not multi- sensory. Multi-sensory knowledge is not equal to the experience we gain during meditation. It is basically non-sensory and it has got its own realm. We learn the logic of it.
