Ungraspable..................

The tiny particles which form the vast universe are not
      tiny at all.
Neither is the vast universe vast.
These are notions of the mind, which is like a knife,
     always chipping away at the Tao,  
    trying to render it graspable and manageable.

But that which is beyond form is ungraspable, and
    that which is beyond knowing is unmanageable.
There is, however, this consolation:
She who lets go of the knife will find the Tao at her
    fingertips.
