Total stillness. Stop talking, stop thinking, and there is nothing you will not understand. The way is not a matter of knowing or not knowing. The way is an empty vessel that is never filled. He who knows that enough is enough will always have enough. You are here now. Be here now. Do not seek what you already have. What was never lost can never be found. Where am I? Here. What time is it? Now. Sometimes to find your way you must close your eyes and walk in the dark. When you get the message, hang up the phone.
