There is but one Truth.
Though there are many ways
To speak of it truly,
None of these
Are the Truth.
Those who claim the Truth
Do not know it.
Those who know the Truth
Do no speak it.
They speak about it,
Truly.
We call it the Truth.
The ancients called it the Tao.
It is The Way,
The unspeakable Way.
The way that can be trodden,
But never spoken.
