A life form coming forth through the grossification of five subtle elements, and being sustained by the five life force elements, experiences the experience through the prevalence of the element mind and its five sub-elements of perception and the element intellect and its five sub-elements of action. The five gross elements and the five life force elements of the life form provide a platform for the mind and intellect to perceive and interpret an experience. So, essentially, the experience/awareness of Cosmic Self has to be through elements of mind and intellect. The mind perceives a sound, a touch, a form, a taste, or a smell; and the intellect, correspondingly, determines what the sound is about, what is being touched, what form is being seen, what is being tasted, or what is being smelled. Utilizing all these five elements of perception and the corresponding five elements of action/recognition, will lead to Cosmic Self experience/awareness. All five pairs are needed. Every sound, touch, form, taste, and smell in the creation has to be perceived and then recognized – providing all knowledge about the Creation and all knowledge in the Creation. This knowledge, surely, must lead to Brusm -- the Creator; since this all knowledge is what Brusm – the Cosmic Self is. One has to utilize Creation, of which one is part of, to fathom/understand/recognize the Creator. One does not have any other resource.
Because of one’s limited mind and intellect capability, one, in this physical form, will not be able to absorb this all knowledge and therefore is aware of Brusm, accordingly, in a limited way. Though, through meditation, one improves the capacity/capability to understand, nonetheless, this life form and its life span are the limiting factors.
