Words may be just words, or they may evoke
experiences, memories, responses, reactions,
feelings, emotions and more. Those written
words may help us clear out a lot of garbage,
especially when we can see that all of the
traditions are saying much the same.

Perhaps what we get from the written word is
what we are ready to get from it. Perhaps if
we are looking to get something, we won’t get
anything. Perhaps if we are open to Truth we can
see it in a child’s ABC book, a person’s face, a
master’s eyes, or the smile of a homeless person.And
if we are not ready, no master can transmit
anything. And if we are ready, is a  master even
needed? (“There are more questions than answers,
and the more I find out the less I know…” )

We may not be able to write Truth down, it does
not mean someone cannot realise it by reading
a book, or undertaking any other activity.
