940) Those who fly higher than the mind do not know time that varies or space that shrieks. If one does not become becoming, one remains the Essence.
941) The verses pass through you in a discontinuous rhythm. They encounter no obstacles. Don’t attempt to use your mental modifications to put them inside you, or the friction within you will burn them.
942) The verses do not sustain you along the path, they do not differentiate those who know them from those who do not. The Way has its own absolute value and has no limitations in words.
943) Prophets, enlightened beings and sages all have the same Source. The same Mother, but different eyes. They appear to be Lights in the darkness to those who have only one eye. One name for all of them, the Absolute.
944) Only the sages know of the beginning of the universe. They know the Divine Design, and the reasons for Its creation. Science can understand how it happened. The sages also know the reason.
945) Those with many names meet those who have no name. Those with many things meet those who desire nothing. Those with many illusions meet those who play with illusions. Those who turn each thing into a burden meet those who do not carry any. They call this game suffering.
946) Love that is peaceful, spontaneous, that is light, that gives, that belongs to the Absolute, that passes through those with no self: Love, which goes out from the Void to All Things. That Love cannot belong to anyone, and so cannot and does not have to be understood.
947) There are seven who reign and know the universe. They know and do not know the wisdom of illusion. Souls of Universal Love, heart facing the infinite exterior. They look inside with objectives; outside, they perceive the Continuous Presence. Only He who created them sees them, nothing else commands them. Once common mortals, now in the world, ancient mortal sentient beings.
948) Any characteristic attributed to the Divine Game is a form of rigidity. Round and round we whirl, we love the entire world. Round and round no one, we love only from the One.
949) The sage does not lose consciousness of the Contemporaneity of the Infinite Universes in the Absolute. Therefore, he will not miss even one of them. The infinite sentient beings will also come to know the entire past.
