The Enigmatic Way
In seeking, the sought evades us;
In avoiding, the feared finds us;
In hoarding, the kept escapes us;
In thinking, the truth eludes us.
In releasing, we are carried;
In detaching, we are conjoined;
In flowing, we are steadied;
In accepting, we are given.
And so is the enigmatic Way –
Opposites residing as one.
