Prove Wu Hsin wrong

The Self wants to unfold Itself, reveal Itself.
If only you weren’t so busy with other matters,
such as the fruitlessness of seeking.
All ways that turn you to paths, goals,
and gradual future attainments are false.

Striving for a new and improved self
is an activity of the present self.

Seeking prevents you from finding the Always Already.
Prove Wu Hsin wrong.
With all your seeking,
has the sought-after been found?

Self-knowledge is like the sun’s burning away of fog.
It is a spontaneous explosion,
a spontaneity that cannot be manipulated into being.
