now there's a mystery

Free from desire, you realize the mystery.
Caught in desire, you see only the manifestations.

Yet mystery and manifestations
arise from the same source.
This source is called darkness.

Darkness within darkness.
The gateway to all understanding.

—Lao-Tzu


And God said, "Let there be light."
—Genesis 1:3
