“Belief is an utter and absolute lack of faith”

“Belief is what we do when we don’t know but we’re not comfortable enough to stay there. Then we start believing. Belief is an utter and absolute lack of faith… You believe because you have no faith. If you have faith, you can sustain, you can stay in the place of not knowing. That takes great trust, great faith, great capacity, to stay completely and absolutely honest. And spiritually speaking, that’s one of the keys that unlock the whole kingdom, is the ability to sustain not-knowing, to sustain being completely and ruthlessly honest. And it’s a challenging thing to do.”
