[Mind] experience knowledge mathematics

[JI1 (HauHau)]

  knowing something gives certainty, and certainty
gives peace. in a certain degree, the first thing
humans want is not sex, but peace.

  but what is knowing, what is knowledge? you realise
that you need experience first, which is you need
to have a database, something you have undergone,
or experienced...

  ultimately, knowledge leads to mathematics, which
is the abstract form of knowledge, or true knowledge,
in other words...
