Man is 'blessed' with seven types of ignorance.
Cosmic Ignorance
Ignorant we are about the origin, purpose and becoming of our existence in this Cosmos.
Absolute Ignorance
The Absolute is the source of all being and becoming. and we are ignorant of the Absolute.
Egotistic Ignorance
Egotistic Ignorance is that we are ignorant of the spaceless timeless and immortal self. We have only a short life.
Temporal Ignorance
We are ignorant of our eternal becoming in time; that is the fourth temporal ignorance.
Psychological Ignorance
This prevents us from knowing who we really are.
Constitutional Ignorance
We are also ignorant of the true constitution of our becoming..
Practical Ignorance
Because of greed and fear, we commit many a blunder and this is our Practical Ignorance.
We have to transcend this sevenfold Ignorance and rise to Integral Knowledge, which is needed for Enlightenment.
