Forgetting.

van Gogh, The Church in Auvers-sur-Oise (detail), 1890


Gâthâ of enlightenment

Forgetting all knowledge at one stroke,
I do not need cultivation anymore.
Activity expressing the ancient road,
I don't fall into passivity.
Everywhere trackless,
conduct beyond sound and form:
the adepts in all places
call this the supreme state.


- Hsiang-yen Chih-hsien
