INNOCENCE

« Back to Glossary Index

• A detachment from a Truth that one does not recognize in oneself.

• A failure to distinguish between real and unreal that one does not recognize in oneself.

[Note: Unlike Ignorance, Innocence involves no culpability — one cannot correct what one does not recognize.]
