I said it 1000 times.

Everybody knows what it is to be human. Everybody gets it. Everybody can TELL you all about it. The mathmatics of life.

The first line of the Tao, however, is: "The Tao that can be expressed is not the Eternal Tao."

That which is BEYOND the veil of illusion is unspeakable. That is because language (and all constructs of human existence) are part of the veil! It is very simple logic. No matter how much information or evidence is accumulated, none of it can equal or be greater than that which is greatest. Simple!

And yet, since *EVERYTHING* is a sub-set of this "Greatest Thing", then it is also true that every little detail and nuance, no matter how insignificant, is also the Greatest Thing! This is great news!

People will spend most of their lives arguing their way around the ramifications of this very simple reasoning, but it is a waste of time -- there is no way around the truth. And in fact, the depth of "truth" is so wild and profound and deep and mysterious that you might as well just 'fess up to it and get on with discovering it. Unless you start digging, there is no possible way you will get to the bottom of it.

And really the Greatest Thing is the greatest because it really is the greatest. So stop it. Surrender. Get on with it.
