Words from a Man of No Words

Viac o knihe

I am just an ordinary man, just like everybody else. If there is any difference, it is only of knowing. I know myself; you don't know. As far as our beings are concerned, I belong to the same existence, I breathe the same air. You just have not tried to know yourself. The moment you know yourself, there is no difference at all. It is just like I am standing and looking at the sunrise and you are standing by my side with closed eyes. The sun is rising for you too, just as it is rising for me. It is so beautiful and so colorful - not only for me, for you too. But what can the sun do? You are standing with closed eyes. That is the only difference. Is it much of a difference? You have to be shaken and told, "Just open your eyes. It is morning, the night is over."
