Agnosticism (Skt. अज्ञेयवाद Agyeyavada) is the philosophical position that is attained finally on the path of knowledge.

The state where all that can be known is known and now nothing remains to be known. Or nothing more can be known. That which remains is unknowable.

The state of ultimate wisdom. The state of simply being.

Agnosticism is also called unknowing. Here there is nothing to know, only to be.

As all knowledge is an accumulation, and is false or illusory, the only valid knowledge is negative knowledge, which is clearing of beliefs, assumptions, concepts or theories. This brings the seeker to a pure state of being. Here there is no knowledge in a positive sense, nothing is known, but there is no ignorance now.

A seeker does not seek to become an agnostic, they seek knowledge, which due to its negative nature, clears the ignorance and brings upon a state of unknowing or agnostic state. It is also not a behavior of knowingly not choosing something as true or false, or avoidance of any conclusions.
