First Paradox

 

The secret of seeing truth
is to throw away the sights
because the sights may not be real
but seeing is

The secret of hearing truth
is to throw away sound
because the sound may not be real
but hearing is

The secret of knowing reality
is to throw away what you believe
because what you believe may not be actually so
but reality is

 

circa 1982
