' No Duality within Knowledge '...

123. Even as the ocean is the substratum of all waves,
direct experience is the basis for all proofs
the direct experience of truth as it is.


124. Consciousness is pure,
thought is subject to confusion.


125. People like to argue and confuse others;
they are indeed confused.


126. All this discussion and argumentation
take place only in and because of ignorance;
when there is knowledge there is no duality.

When the truth is known,
all descriptions cease,
and silence alone remains.


Then you will realize that there is only one,
without beginning and without end.

But as long as words are used to denote a truth,
duality is inevitable;
however, such duality is not the truth.

All divisions are illusory.
