The Long Path is needed to make a man or woman ripe for receiving
truth, but only the Short Path can lead to it. This is the answer to
the dilemma created by the claims of the Wu Wei school. Its practical
application is: act as the Long Path requires by working on and
improving the self, but think as the Short Path enjoins by holding the
attitude "There is nothing to be attained. Realization is already here
and now!"
