"You are walking lost in wonder,
emptied of self and mindful of Reality,
and suddenly you interrupt this peace
to exclaim:
'How beautiful is this tree!
How magnificent this field.'

and the imposing of judgment
separates you from Reality
and snares you in a web of words.
Be still
and embrace it all in silence."
