More and more people now discover that they not only need their head but also the intelligence of their heart to function properly in the current changing world. The time in which we live demands an open heart because light that is omnipresent around us can only approach us and forge a link with us at the moment when our heart is open.

There are two kinds of intelligence.

Yet you should not think Lao Tzu is recommending some kind of negative, mystical dependence, some kind of mystical rejection of the fruits of understanding. No, Lao Tzu is simply saying that the mentality is like a dam, preventing the flow of the spirit, and that is the reason why your way of thinking must be set aside.

Why scurry about searching for the truth, it vibrates in everything and every not thing. Don’t imagine you will discover it by accumulating more knowledge. Knowledge creates doubt and doubt makes you ravenous for more knowledge. You can't get full eating this way. The wise person dines on something more subtle. They eat the understanding that the named was born from the unnamed.

So why don't you feel at home here? Why do you feel so lonely and forsaken? Well, that is the reaction of the ‘Other One' in you. That feeling is caused by the activity of the primordial atom, the rose, and what lies within it.

The key to the Path is faith, that is to say : the union of the spirit-spark atom in the heart with the pure Divine light. When this gate has been opened and the new power can enter the system of the pupil and work in him, he is ready for the path of renewal.
