---

When the Chinese sages were confronted with the need of telling others what their insight revealed, they said that anything communicated could be affirmed in one way or negated in another, and that therefore it would be quite incorrect. For behind Nature, or as they called it "at the Head," was Mystery beyond all knowing, all thinking, all describing, absolute Being beyond all relativity, that was also Non-Being.
