We know beauty because there is ugly.
We know good because there is evil.
Being and not being,
having and not having,
create each other.


Difficult and easy,
long and short,
high and low,
define each other,
just as before and after follow each other.


The dialectic of sound gives voice to music,
always transforming "is" from "was"
as the ancestors of "to be."


The wise
teach without telling,
allow without commanding,
have without possessing,
care without claiming.


In this way we harvest eternal importance
because we never announce it.


Lao Tzu (6th century BC)
From the Tao Te Ching

To fill yourself with wisdom,
you must be full of wisdom.

To fill yourself with wisdom,
you must empty yourself of all your wise thoughts.

To receive the Infinite Light,
you must be armed with all the tools that draw light.

To receive the Infinite Light,
you must be still and empty.

Tzvi Freeman
