'Tis normal and harmless
(the routine, to dream)
but those seeking freedom
by doing stay trapped.

I guess you could say that an "enlightened man"
is what everyone else is in those momentary, unnoticed
gaps between their thoughts.
(I guess you could if you wanted to.)

To pay attention to time is to never awake and be free.

On Those Worlds Which Have Thought:
Where the sun rises and where the sun sets,
that's where to be -- that's where to be.

What is so, so easy to forget amidst all the noise of our talking is that
the very same energy that brought about our birth is the exact, same
energy that moves us to awaken.
What other force is there?

Another One Of Those "Special" Laws
Applicable Only To Those Special Few People:
Anything you want, you can't get.

To some, the grandest of attainments is the loss of all knowledge.

How Much Simpler Need We See It:
If you didn't talk, you'd be awake.
