   Yes. I agree.   
      
   When someone, realizes, how pristine a state is,   
   wherein the whole world is simply dust,   
   particles, animated by light   
   waves in motion,   
   and then wants to run   
   out and tell the whole dust-ball   
   about it and is attached to doing that,   
   a level of frustration can be very pure at heart.   
      
   I may call that an unrealized realization of all things.
