The Process Of Understanding

I relate to notion that the process of understanding requires both holding and releasing based on my understanding that everything exists in polarities. Existence is inhale and exhale, in and out, up and down. Understanding is understanding and overstanding, holding and releasing. Understanding is holding on loosely, not with clenched grip, to the understanding that I have and at the same time is open and loose enough that I can release understanding and take in and hold new information. lt's when I 'concentrate' along with being open to release understanding that I emerge with new and deeper understanding. What helps me is learning through experience that only holding on rigidly or only releasing everything didn't work, and I grew most by a combination of holding on and releasing, just like a combination of inhaling and exhaling works best.
