Know nothing -
That knowledge may be revealed
In the empty space you make for it
Knowledge is received
In this way, learning is only preparation
a letting go of the steeled
Habits of your own justification
and relentless ego.
Knowledge is not vengeful
Neither does it stir up anger
It does not harm, nor discriminate
Knowledge remains peaceful
Unattached, disinterested, for its own nourishment
It is given away.
When you know everything
You know nothing.
When you know nothing
Everything is revealed
In its essential Oneness
Empty of all preconception
Hollow as the void
Knowledge joins eternally
Only error makes separation
in boundaries of ignorance
Your error is what you think you know,
The unerring is only One.
Know nothing, so that you can become nothing
Create the space you fill by hiding
Realize your own absense
Move out from your shadow
And perceive the essential Light
This is your chariot
and Wisdom becomes it
Thus creation knows
It is moved
It returns
Judgment becomes adjustment
A necessary learning, upward
Where the soul goes
