Chapter 14
Presence of God

a
We look and do not see it
And call it invisible
b
We listen and do not hear it
And call it silent
We reach and do not grasp it
a
And call it formless
c
These three cannot be fathomed
Thus, they are joined into One

d
Above, there is no brightness
Below, there is no darkness
Infinite, unnamable
e
Returning to the realm of nothingness
The form of the formless
The image of the imageless
Indefinable, beyond all imagination f
a
Approach it, there is no beginning
Follow it, there is no end

When one knows the Spirit of the ancient past
g
One can begin to understand the present
Knowing the mystery of the beginning
Is the way to know God
