long path and time...

Long Path has to do with progress and takes a time for it and therefore means moving in time,

and it is the ego who is working.

Short Path is not concerned with time and therefore not with progress.

Thinking only of the timeless Overself.

No idea of progress, no desire, it does not matter.

Real Self is always changeless.

Progress implies change.

All questions and problems disappear because the questioning (ego) intellect is not allowed to be active.
