Gathatoulie

And of these shall I speak to those eager, That quality of wisdom that all the wise wish And call creative qualities And good creation of the mind The all-powerful truth Truly and that more & better ways are discovered Towards perfection --Zarathustra.

flower ornament c/o thomas cleary (who's awesome)

I know all the various arts and crafts and sciences in the world
dealing with writing, mathematics and symbols, physiology, rhetoric,
physical and mental health, city planning, architecture and
construction, mechanics and engineering, divination, agriculture and
commerce, conduct and manners, good and bad actions, good and bad
principles, what makes for felicity and what for misery, what is
necessary for enlightenment, and behavior linking reason and action. I
know all these sciences, and I also introduce them and teach them to
people, and get people to study and practice them, to master and
develop them, using these as means to purify, refine, and broaden
people.
