Thirteen

"The tiny particles which form the vast universe are not
tiny at all.
Neither is the vast universe vast.
These are notions of the mind, which is like a knife,
always chipping away at the Tao,
trying to render it graspable and manageable.

But that which is beyond form is ungraspable, and
that which is beyond knowing is unmanageable.
There is, however, this consolation:
She who lets go of the knife will find the Tao at her
fingertips."

One solution is to let go of everything. I have tried to do this, letting back in only those things which come back to me on their own. I've heard it said, "If it's for you, you won't have to chase it." I have finally slowed down enough to know that this is always true.
