Most of the world's religions serve only to strengthen attachments to false concepts such as self and other, life and death, heaven and earth, and so on. Those who become entangled in these false ideas are prevented from perceiving the Integral Oneness.

Not all spiritual paths lead to the harmonious Oneness. Indeed, most are detours and distractions, nothing more.

He does not seek glory - yet people respect him.

When leading people and serving Heaven, nothing exceeds moderation.

Loving, hating, having expectations: all these are attachments. Attachment prevents the growth of one's true being.

The truly wise are content to be last. They are, therefore, first. They are indifferent to themselves. They are, therefore self-confident.

He who steals a hook shall be hanged; while he who steals the state shall be crowned as prince.
