"There are known knowns; there are things we know that we know.
There are known unknowns; that is to say there are things that, we know know we don't know.
But there are also unknown unknowns – there are things we do not know, we don't know. ” - Donald Rumsfeld
The knowledge beyond self is described in Johari Window .
The Four Classes of Ignorance
The ignorance changes states as one gets enlightened. There are at least four varieties of ignorance, two of which are beneficial; one of these actually supersedes knowledge in the enlightenment that it confers upon those who attain it. Moreover, the view that knowledge proceeds from, and replaces ignorance is not necessarily correct. The ideal progression is one in which ignorance displaces knowledge.
1) Passive ignorance: It is the inevitable and automatic outcome of doing nothing with one's mind.
2)Active ignorance : Active ignorance is commonly mistaken for knowledge, so that although we imagine that we go to school in order to fill our heads with wisdom, we are really there to exchange one type of ignorance for another.
3)Essential ignorance : Essential ignorance is achieved when a person becomes truthfully and sincerely cognizant that he lacks understanding. In contrast to passive ignorance, essential ignorance represents a relatively advanced state of self-comprehension. Essential ignorance is not a lack of awareness, but rather the awareness of a lack, and as such, it renders the mind an empty vessel prepared to receive.
4)Enlightened ignorance : Enlightened ignorance is as far as one's mind can take one in the quest for truth. Intellect, even of the highest quality, is, by nature, limited.

Unconscious Ignorance
These four quadrants explained. This knowledge and consciousness is from an individual's perspective .
The knowledge beyond self is described in Johari Window .
Conscious knowldge What all knowledge we have Conscious Ignorance What all things we do not know . Unconscious Knowledge
Gut feelings , Our habits , automatic responses ,
Unconscious Ignorance
We can not even enumerate what we do not know.
The Conscious Competence Ladder
Level 4 – Unconscious Competence (You Don't Know that You Know – It Just Seems Easy!)
At this level your new skills become habits, and you perform the task without conscious effort and with automatic ease. This is the peak of your confidence and ability.
Level 3 – Conscious Competence (You Know that You Know)
At this level you acquire the new skills and knowledge. You put your learning into practice and you gain confidence in carrying out the tasks or jobs involved. You are aware of your new skills and work on refining them.You are still concentrating on the performance of these activities, but as you get ever-more practice and experience, these become increasingly automatic.
Level 2 – Conscious Incompetence(You Know that You Don't Know) At this level you find that there are skills you need to learn, and you may be shocked to discover that there are others who are much more competent than you. As you realize that your ability is limited, your confidence drops. You go through an uncomfortable period as you learn these new skills when others are much more competent and successful than you are.
Level 1 – Unconscious Incompetence(You Don't Know that You Don't Know) At this level you are blissfully ignorant: You have a complete lack of knowledge and skills in the subject in question. On top of this, you are unaware of this lack of skill, and your confidence may therefore far exceed your abilities.
