The dawn of wisdom

 

"Once there is surrender to

Never finding out

Who one is,

Who one is becomes obvious."

                                         Wu Hsin

 

 

 

In

 

the knowing

 

that the knower

 

cannot be known

 

the dawn of wisdom

 

breaks the night

 

boundless

 

is

 

the light

Diametrically opposed to Socrates, "Know thyself." Eastern and Western thought evolved to suit its own culture I suppose. But I think that in the end I think they are saying the same thing—be self-aware to a greater good. Find the harmony within, and reach your full abilities, whatever they may be.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
