Know

All our knowledge starts from the sense and then passes to the understanding. To be aware of what you know and what you don't know, that is indeed knowing. Experience itself is a way of knowing that requires understanding. Knowing is the natural reason, the direct perception of the environment without thought that alters it.

In the Mandala of Emotions the complement of knowledge is coherence. In the soul, well-being and discomfort are related to the sensations of the body.
