Now

There is a time to cease movement:
To let your hands fall
To collapse onto the grass
To surrender
To quit one’s task
To let the world move around you.
How I wish that time were now.

The Way

The heart of wisdom is when a man admits
“I cannot do this by myself.”
The path of wisdom is denying all
  until the best helper is found.
The goal of wisdom is perfect partnership.

Limits

The truest knowledge knows its limits
  and knows when to say “I don’t know”.
The truest compassion knows its limits
  when its greatest gift is to say, “I cannot give.”
The truest love knows its limits
  and admits to itself, “I cannot love.”
he truest peace knows its limits
  and confesses to another, “Find your own peace.”
This admission is not a principle
  but a temporary lapse.

Revelation

Beautiful words aren’t true on their own.
Only when accompanied with exquisite action
  can words be understood.
Otherwise, in discerning the next truth
One must set aside all action
Delve into silence
And the Deep shall reveal itself to you.

Silence

The wind moves around the rock
The spiritual respond to stillness
Firm silence speaks deeper than
  many varying words.

Freedom

Freedom is glorious
Complete freedom comes only at the cost
  of slavery for all us ourselves.
Better for us to be slaves
Than to buy freedom at the cost of lives.

The Thou

The Thou exists in each person
We neglect another’s Thou to our own harm.
We exalt our own Thou to the harm of all.
