The unknown knower

"It is so near.

It is so obvious.

As to see the sun

Requires no candle,

So it is to see this nearness.

One need not know

What is to know

That it is.

By that which one knows one is;

One is That."

Wu Hsin

 

 

To know that what you truly are

 

cannot be known as an object

 

is

 

pure freedom from the known

 

All stories of worries fall silent

 

In the stillness of the night

 

there is a timeless light

 

The moon is glowing

 

in full knowing 

 

already here

 

so clear

 

as it

 

is
