The name that can be named is not the enduring and\nunchanging name.\n\n(Conceived of as) having no name, it is the Originator of heaven\nand earth; (conceived of as) having a name, it is the Mother of all\nthings.\n\nAlways without desire we must be found,\nIf its deep mystery we would sound;\nBut if desire always within us be,\nIts outer fringe is all that we shall see.\n\nUnder these two aspects, it is really the same; but as development\ntakes place, it receives the different names. Together we call them\nthe Mystery. Where the Mystery is the deepest is the gate of all that\nis subtle and wonderful.",
