Sagacious words

Poetry is a deal of joy and pain and wonder, with a dash of the dictionary. ~ Khalil Gibran

Wu Men, Chinese poet, 1183-1260

One Instant is eternity;
eternity is the now.
When you see through this one instant,
you see through the one who sees.

. Wu Men


The Great Way has no gate;
there are a thousand paths to it.
If you pass through the barrier,
you walk the universe alone.
  
 ~ Wu Men
