Make way the dawn. There is a new beginning. You are born again on the path that leads to all things. What you know cannot be said. What you say cannot be known. What you cannot say is the beginning. This is what you know. You know there is that which cannot be said, we give it words. It cannot be known, we describe it. The words must be forgotten. The way through the door of the mystery is silent. Hold to the path of knowledge in the still silence of the room within. The mystery is dark. The way is illuminated.

There is a shadow across the path that is the way of the world. It is fear. Your way is obstructed by thoughts of lack. You perceive separation. Perception says, you have this but not that. There is fear in thoughts of not having. Then it becomes thoughts of want, or desire. With desire comes expectations. Expectations of fulfillment of desire beget attachments. Fear binds you to desire. The ultimate fear comes with attachment to the body. This is the fear of oblivion. To lose the body is death. You fear death above all.

Fear is false evidence of what appears to be real. The perception of separation feeds fear. One complements the other. To overcome fear, you must know oneness in all things. What you see with the eyes of the body is separation. What you see with the vision that is twia is oneness. Through eyes that see, beauty and ugliness, giving and receiving are the same.

The journey of life is one day at a time, moment by moment. Hold peace of heart in all that you do. Do not labor unnecessarily. It will only exhaust you. Too much ado disturbs the way. Do not trouble the waters or you will be lost, unable to find your way. You cannot hear in its din or see in its confusion. Be still and silent in your way.

Existence arises from nothingness. There is nothingness only because you know existence. This is separation. The eternal holds existence, but existence is not eternal. This is the paradox of separation. It exists without being real. To speak of this, call it a dream or illusion. Separation is thought manifested without reality. Twia is real. The me of the body is illusion. Live as if you know this.

Express in life what cannot be said. Observe, listen, act, release. Life will flow to you. Do not initiate on your own. Accept what is before you. See it through without making it your own. To distinguish something as your own leads to suffering. Nothing you do or have is yours. Why? To own is to separate. There is no separation except as you perceive it. Release separation. Release ownership. Without ownership there is no suffering. You cannot attach to what is not yours. Without attachments there is no suffering.
