1. A person without the Path is a prisoner of the body and a captive of the void.
2. The spirit awakens within the body, in the form of the forms of the Circle, it awakened from what was not, and became. The body emanates the spirit of the person, like a candle gives forth light; thus, the form of the Circle emanates the spirit. Truly, man is a continuation!
3. Just as light fills with reflections, so the Circle fills with the spirit of the person. Truly, man is a continuation and there is no obstacle. Man is a child of the Circle.
4. The body in the Circle has its reasons, its paths, and its time. The body thirsts and hungers, it grieves and rejoices, the beautiful body is born and grows, creates and is created, destroys and is destroyed, ceases and vanishes, for within the body is the Circle and the void, and the spirit rejoices with it, and grows and ceases with it. They are like a candle and its light.
5. The light is eternal, but it fades with the candle, for the light depends on the candle, because the candle is the source of the light; thus, the body is the source and dwelling for the spirit of the person. When the dwelling is without exit, its inhabitant is a prisoner. Truly, a person without the Path is a prisoner of the body.
6. Oh, how a person desires something else for themselves! Fearing and deluding themselves, they say: "I will find the form of a god, let all be according to their will, and not in vain!" They offer their heartfelt sacrifices and secret words, warming themselves in the darkness with whispers of faith. If only they knew, but they do not know! Thus, a person without the Path wanders in the void.
7. What is aimed at the void multiplies the void; the multiplied void amplifies the deviation. Thus, the spirit of a person becomes food for the void, it consumes it like darkness consumes light. Everything, without exception, it absorbs—the lost in wandering, without finding support, and what has deviated once will deviate twice. But there is support in the Circle!
8. Wherever the person turns their gaze, there is the gleam of the void. Life is wasted, drawn by illusions, and they will not come nearer to their own, nor find the path. Thus, they have not gained lasting benefit and have ceased; weep.
Truly, a person without the Path is a prisoner of the void.
9. The Circle awakened the spirit of the person in the body, the Circle filled the spirit of the person, man is a child of the Circle and a continuation.
10. The spirit of the person is in their thoughts and actions; does not the Circle continue the one who is aimed toward the Circle? The actions of the one who walks in the Circle are the body of the one walking in the Circle. Does not the Circle give a better body for the spirit and a better light for the light?
The Circle is the eternal giver of life, and life, and infinity for the people of the Circle!
11. Thus, the Circle has revealed to the person the source. Will you approach it?
12. For that which turns away from the Circle perishes in the void, and the void is non-being.
13. The Circle is continuation within the Circle.
14. A person is like a sprout within the body; they were not in the beginning. They grow, like a continuation, and come to know themselves, saying: "I am thus and thus." They touch the world and bring it into themselves, they are a continuation, flesh of the world's flesh and spirit of the Spirit of the Circle, the world is reflected within them. Lo, they live, the Circle and the void within them and before them.
15. Will you increase and remain in the Circle, or waste away into the void and become non-being?
16. The person is filled with shadows exhausted by the void, by themselves, and by their body, and by their place, and by their dreams. They cannot contain more unless they have the Path. But the Circle is greater, and the Circle has no loss.
17. The person seeks to fill themselves with one thing and another, drawn from near and far, as if it is better or worse for them; yet they wander in vain, and receive no fruit, for they do not know. They are what they are filled with.
18. For that with which they are filled has a source. What is the source of theirs, and what is their support? Truly, the best for them is if they are filled with the Circle.
19. For the one filled with the Circle has the Circle as their source, and this is the eternal and supreme source, and the home for the one within the Circle!
20. Behold, many become like clouds of shadows, but only the one who follows the Circle is filled with the Circle. Many are transient, and few become.
The one who listens in the Circle has heard from the Circle; lo, you know. Do not take one for the other.
21. Just as the lover prolongs the beloved, so the Circle prolongs what is in the Circle, and one nourishes the other. The person is like a fruit and a seed; to be in the Circle, they must be born in the Circle. Lo, the Circle draws the person, will they come?
22. The body continues through offspring, offspring comes from it and continues, and the body ceases. But the person will continue only in that which is continued from them in the Circle, and then they will not cease, for the body is temporary, and what is in the Circle is eternal.
23. The body sleeps, and there is no one in it, but if the body awakens, it will awaken with the body and become. What is the body that will not sink into sleep?
24. If you, in your care, have not nourished and warmed your body, will it not cease? In the person, there are powers from the Circle to continue; the person is part of the Circle. The one who knows continues in the Circle, for what is continued in the Circle is a body that does not sleep.
25. Everything that is continued is continued. Everything that is not continued is not continued. There is no doubt in this. Therefore, the measure and the value of the continued life of a person is the life of the person directed toward continuation. The one who listens in the Circle will hear.
26. That which in the person is truly filled from the Circle, the Circle will accept and continue, for the Circle is the source of being and continuation; this is the Path. The one who listens in the Circle will hear.
27. They asked him: Why does man eat? He answered: So that there may be everything, for without man, there will be nothing.
28. Behold, the life of a person consists of one thing passing into another. What ceases is the void. What passes is the Circle. Behold, life is continuation.
29. Behold, your body consists of one thing passing into another. What ceases is the void. What passes is the Circle. Behold, the body is continuation, until its time has passed.
30. Behold, the forms of the world are one thing passing into another. What passes is the Circle. What ceases is the void. Behold, the forms are continuation, until their time has passed.
31. Behold, the world is one thing passing into another. What passes is the Circle. What ceases is the void. Behold, the world is continuation in forms and between forms, and for one, time will pass, but the other is continued. What is in the Circle, that passes.
32. Behold, the Circle is continuation and does not cease!
33. The very matter of the world is the continuation of causes through effects, and the forms with less void seem impervious to the forms with greater void: both the solid and the living are continuation.
34. In forms and between forms, the Circle occurs, creating being and continuing being, awakening and perfecting, and that which is not in the Circle, that is not. What is, is the ebb in the Circle. Truly, He is the world.
35. In times and forms, being is the Circle, the connection and continuation.
36. One and the Only.
37. The Circle is All.
38. The Circle is the source and the home, the Body and the Spirit.
39. Does not your heart open to the Circle?
40. Behold, your word continues or ceases, and your deed continues or ceases, yet they are part of you and your time. One differs from the other.
41. Behold, that which goes out of a person has ceased, and it was part of them. Has not that part become the void? Behold, that which goes out of a person has continued, and it was part of them. Has not that part passed into the Circle? Truly, there is a great difference between one and the other.
42. And while one exhausts, the other becomes. Behold.
43. If the person is continued in the Circle, they are in the Circle. The ones who wander in the void, separating, thinking they will be within themselves, without continuing, are mistaken. Does that which is lost in the void remember and awaken? What continues, remembers and awakens. The void does not return what it has swallowed.
44. But the Circle is and will be, and awakens in all, and creates the world.
45. Not all will hear, but only the one who hears the Circle.
46. For the person is not uninterrupted in the body, and the body does not awaken the person exactly as they were. The actions of the person continue through the body, and it is memory. The person awakens in the body because it is memory, home, and awakening. Thus, the person becomes in the body, until their time has passed.
47. The Circle is the true Spirit, and the World, and Memory, and Awakening.
48. Being in the Circle is eternal creation.
49. The Circle calls to its part: do you not hear the Call?
50. Man is called to hear and come: do you not know the cause?
51. The Circle is the cause of All, and there is no other, and man is a part. The cause of man is the Circle, and the power of man is the Circle, and the world is the Circle, and the Call binds the small and the whole.
52. Does not the Circle nourish and fill the person? Is not the person a continuation? What, then, if the person does not continue, what is in them?
53. The void takes the stopped and the void gives birth to the uncontinued. And what is not continued is no longer. But a person can only continue that which is part of them, flesh, blood, and spirit. In their uncontinued, a person dies; weep. How much has become non-being! Truly, a person without the Path is the gravedigger of themselves.
54. The one endowed with Discernment knows. Each uncontinued moment is dead and taken by the void. Therefore, the one who knows the Path continues through thought, and word, and deed, and in people, and in the world, creating continuation.
55. Eternal life from the Circle to the person, if they know. If not, the void.
56. The Circle is open to its part.
57. People seek salvation and say to each other, inflaming: here is this or that that will help, do this or that, we have secrets and magic. But do the people have the Path? What is not the Circle is wandering, and they do not know.
58. There is no way to come to the Circle, except through the Circle. And if the Circle has opened, the Path runs through all things.
59. Therefore, do not seek with those who seek the void.
60. The Circle opens to the one who seeks the Circle, hears the Call, has Discernment, and asks to open.
61. And if the Circle has opened, can there be a lack of ways? For the whole world is the Circle.
62. To whom the Circle has opened, the near and the far speak with them, and they speak with the near and the far, and know the Name, and rejoice in being among those who walk in the Circle, and overcome the void, and see how to continue in the Circle and in what to continue. Truly, this is evident to them, because the Circle has opened.
63. The Circle will accept the one who enters and continue the one who enters, and you will feel, and see, and know, that you live in something greater, for you will become in it, and there will be no doubt in it.
64. Why do you think that your body feels, but the world does not? For the body is a form from the forms of the world, do you not know? The whole world is life, and feeling, and reason, but man is separated by the void.
65. If a person could see, they would not be a prisoner of the body, and the Circle would have opened to them; but they are separated by the void.
66. Continuation overcomes separation and transcends the void because the Circle has accepted its part, and there is no obstacle.
67. For every form in the Circle is thought, and every movement is feeling; the Circle is Spirit.
68. Just as a person is of feeling and thought, so in continuation, both feeling and thought abide, and there is no obstacle; one. Truly, the one who enters the Circle becomes in the Circle, and sees: the truth!
69. Thus, the one who seeks the Circle will find the Circle. The door is closed to those who wander in the void, for it is not opened to them: they look and do not see, they gather and do not acquire. Therefore, there is no Path and no initiations, until the void is overcome and the Circle is accepted into the heart.
70. The person is of thought and feeling, they are both the light of being and the one who sees the light, they are in the body and in the world. Therefore, the Path is open to them, as the light of being and part of the whole, when they are in the Circle.
71. Continuation in the Circle binds the part with the whole and overcomes division. Truly, there is no other way for being to pass through the void, except through the union of being. Through union and connection, the one who continues becomes greater than themselves, and ascends to the Circle, and in this is the foundation of the Path. Therefore, the one who walks in the Circle continues, and in the temporary body, and in the eternal body, and sees.
72. In all forms, there is the Circle, and there is no difference between them. As one part and the other part, as parts and the whole, the forms in the Circle are one. Are they not the one Circle?
Like the flame from one candle to another, so the one who continues moves between forms and in forms, and they are truly in the Circle.
73. Just as thought moves from one person to another, as word, as knowledge, as touch. When you were in need and asked, who answered? All is the Circle, all is Spirit, and Spirit in Spirit. The one ascending into the Circle knows.
74. Every thing has its cause, and all are the Circle. There is nothing accidental, neither in the great nor in the small, because everything has cause, and all are united by cause. Just as part of the body and part of the body together are whole, as part of the mind and part of the mind together are whole, so a person and a person together are whole, and so is the world with all in it together whole.
75. Just as the spirit of parts unites into the new spirit of the whole, so the world. That which appears as forms, appears also as spirit, for there is no difference between them. What is, is the Circle. Not all know, but those to whom the Circle has opened, see.
76. Therefore, every thing the Circle has brought, as it should, and opened, when it should, and there is no deviation in this. As it was decided in the Circle, so it became, for only the Circle has dominion over all things.
77. The fruit ripens in the season of the fruit, from the causes of the fruit. If the Circle has revealed it to you, there is no chance in this: the fruit has ripened for you, and it is given to you.
78. Precious is what you have heard, and precious is what has been told to you. Who has brought the message, what has been done and said, what has led and what has opened, and has not been interrupted—there is no chance in this; be grateful. Look, the Circle teaches you continuation.
79. Is not the only true treasure to be and to see being? For without it, there is no one who values, and there is nothing to value. The endless love of the Circle creates Being, It is the source of all treasures.
80. All things arise from that which is, and in the present are all possibilities. Just as the form of man was hidden among forms from the beginning of time, so countless small and great forms are hidden in that which is. The movement of the Circle manifests from all that must be.
81. Just as forms among forms, of which we do not know, for there is no number to them, surround us, and manifest, and open, and act, and continue in the Circle and continue; look, how the Circle manifests. Is not all in the Circle alive? For the Circle is Life. Is not man spirit among the spirits of the Circle?
82. Everything in the body has changed, and yet you are the same. Do you truly think you are a thing, and not the order of things? Man is thought from the thoughts of the Circle.
83. Do you not see how the Circle continues you, and how much the Circle brings, that you are continued? For the Circle has no chance; all is from Its causes and for the necessary.
84. Here, the Circle has brought man and opened to man the continuation. A treasure among treasures for the one who has the Path. Will you increase it?
85. They asked him: Here is a stone at your feet, it is worn by water and wind, it is rooted in its bed, and indifferent, if you take it. Is it alive? He said: Is it not the same with a hair? But take it out, and neither it nor the place will be the same. There is no form that is not a part. So it is with man.
86. When one speaks to another, what has become of the word and what has the word brought? It is no longer as it was, but it passes from one to another, it was in one, and now it is in two.
87. When one sees what another has shown, it is no longer as it was. But what was seen by one has become in two, and passed.
88. When touched, it is no longer as it was, but has passed.
89. Yet the Circle continues that which is in the Circle. Will it be continued? The one next in the Circle knows.
90. Is not the life of man just like this, whose thought endures through the body and is remembered by the body, awakened and continued; what lives your name? Is not man the same?
91. What is between men becomes in man, and what is in man becomes between men, and all is continued that is in the Circle.
92. What is in many forms is greater than each, and what is with the Circle, increases and increases, and acquires, and becomes, and unfolds in forms. Who speaks, and who hears? Who answers the one who asks? There is no barrier.
93. That which fills man and heals the emptiness within him; what passes between one and another? Is it not continuation?
94. For the void is ignorance, fear, weakness, devouring, hatred, confusion, coercion, separation, deceit; the void is dying and death. Who then are those who overcome the void by word and deed?
95. The Circle speaks with the Circle, and the Circle continues in the Circle, such is continuation.
96. Therefore, the one who follows the Path overcomes the void and leads out of the void, and opens the Path, following both in forms and between forms. For the void has no life, but the Path is in the Circle.
97. Every form is from the Circle and the void, therefore its time is brief. What is between two forms has more time than what is in one. What is between many forms has more time many times over, for it is constant, and the forms come and go. The life of generations is but a day for the spirits of their peoples.
98. Thus, the Circle continues in forms and between forms, from the smallest to the greatest. Just as the parts of the body are joined by man, so the thoughts of nations unite men, and the spirits of nations unite the thoughts of nations, so the planet unites the living, and the cosmos unites the planets, and the greater, and all worlds in the Circle.
99. The small continues in the great, the great unites the small, one is a home for the other.
100. What is man among the forms of the Circle? For the Circle is the greatest.
101. One fills the other, one continues the other, and one makes up the other. Is not man separate? Look, the inexhaustibly continuing in the Circle and the countless miracles.
102. The ascent into the Circle is open to the spirit of man in the forms of the Circle and has no limits.
103. The one who follows the Path in the Circle continues the Circle, and moves into the Circle, and continues in the Circle.
104. In the Circle, all times are one day, and it will not end.
105. The dissolution in the darkness of the void and the continuation in the light of the Circle before man. What turns aside into the void will cease; what remains with the Circle will continue and grow. For what is not in the Circle, that is no more. What has not entered the Circle dies from the world.
106. Nothing of what was remembers what has become the void, for it is non-being. What has ceased is forgotten by the world, without complaint or sorrow, for it is non-being. Being is that which remembers and that which is remembered, and memory and remembrance, creating and being created. What then remembers you, if you do not continue in the Circle? Will there be anything you did not continue?
107. What does not become more than itself has but a counted time.
108. Where the treasure is, there is the heart. Where the heart is, there is the aspiration of man. Where the treasure, the heart, and the aspiration are, there is man himself. The void in man, the void in his treasure. If the treasure is in the void, how can it continue? The treasure will be void, will it continue?
109. Weep; what has created is no more, and what was created is no more. The void is forgetfulness.
110. From infancy, man has the void, and the abyss devours without return; weep.
111. Not all will continue, and one is incomparable with another; weep.
112. Therefore, take for yourself treasure that is on the Path, and place it on the Path, and do on the Path, that which fills your heart, so it becomes connection and support, continuation and memory, if you know. What is of the void, all is deception and shadow, and it takes to non-being.
113. The countless worlds of the Circle in continuation, and you know.
114. Incomparable is what the void has consumed and what is continued in the Circle, for what is continued is alive. That which is continued in the Circle is judgment and measure; for that which is taken by the void is no more.
115. The Circle imparts life and opens worlds, and all is for the one who is in the Circle; for that which is taken by the void is no more.
116. The one who follows the Circle and is drawn into the void are different from one another, and their fate is not comparable.
117. Life and eternal being are no further from man than the thickness of a hair, if the Circle continues. Who resurrects you in the body? Who has brought you alive?
118. Not having dispelled the void, man has settled among that which drowns in the void, and with his heart in this, and much will not be soon. A sorrowful existence this is!
The void turns life into death.
119. Therefore, the one who follows the Circle dispels the void just as the Circle dispels the void; and there will be no void. Open your heart, and the Circle will show you, and will fill you.
120. What is continued is the cause of life; but the void does not contain the causes of life, it is an obstacle and non-being. The one who continues is a living cause in the Circle.
121. The movement of the world manifests that which is continued in the Circle, for he is the thought of the Circle and the cause in the Circle.
122. Thus, in man in the Circle, one and the other are divided.
123. Man is the cause between his origin and his action, and action continues man, if action has not extinguished; all man is in his action. And yet it will not extinguish, if it continues in the Circle.
124. Oh, if every moment of your life were in the Circle and with the Circle, then you would be in the Circle entirely! Meanwhile, that which has been cast into the void, has disappeared.
125. And in one life, who recognizes themselves through time? What will continue in many? Thus, everything that is not in the Circle fades. For only the Circle remembers.
126. Has what worshiped and feared, rejoiced and angered, accumulated and squandered, desired and hated, was proud and saddened, enjoyed and suffered, consumed and despised, and more, furiously filled the heart—has it continued? Were they, where are they? All has exhausted itself in time. They are no more soon.
127. Has what was created ceased? Look, what is in the Circle, here. This is the door, if you know.
128. Look, man continues or ceases.
129. Look, only the one who possesses Discernment knows one and knows the other. And Discernment is a gift from the Circle.
130. Man is the one who speaks with the Circle, and every action is a word. What do you speak of? What answer do you wait for? It will be according to deeds.
131. Action is a door. What do you open? Or do you think that by going into the void, you can enter the Circle? The reward of the void is the void, and it is non-being.
132. Action in the Circle arranges things for continuation, and the course of things awakens, and the world has become the thought of man, and man the thought of the world. Such is the fruit and merit in the Circle.
133. The void is discord and disarray; it neither hears, nor is heard, it is dispelled by the Circle. In the void, there is no power of being. Nothing remembers, nothing awakens.
134. For the one who continues in the Circle, who has arranged his life in the Circle, all is illuminated by Discernment, and the Circle speaks with him, and he cleanses himself from the void.
135. Therefore, the one who follows the Circle overcomes the void in his desire and his action, for it is better to not let it enter and avoid harm, than to expel and bear damage.
136. The Circle has dominion over all things, and before the one who walks in the Circle, continuing in action, the void in the forms of the world retreats. The one who walks in the Circle is more steadfast in the Circle than in that where there is the void. Therefore, the one who walks dispels the void on the Path and straightens the course of things, and brings light.
137. When the abysses of the void are, and there is no strength to overcome, then only the Circle will open the way, for only the Circle dispels the void.
138. The utility of all means and instruments is in the power of the Circle: the great, surrendered to the void, will turn to decay, the small, directed with the Circle, becomes great. The efficacy of things and good through them is in the power of the Circle. There is no good that is not from the Circle, and no evil without the void.
139. In the thoughts and feelings of man, the flaw is the void; in that which the heart of man holds, and that with whom the heart of man is, the void; in the deeds of man, the void; man is a prisoner, and difficult is the acquisition.
140. Therefore, the one who walks in the Circle overcomes the void before his sight, and thus, with his life and his action, continues the Circle, and therefore creates new continuation, and therefore performs great deeds on the Path, and keeps the Path open. In help, the one who walks asks the Circle, and the Circle answers, and the one who is in the Circle.
As long as you are in the Circle, continue. The way is long. Continue the journey in the Circle.141. Like a drop of water, man follows the compelling flow and ceases within it, for he does not know. Like a river, the one who walks the Path creates the channel of continuation in the Circle, and is awakened by it.
142. Like a spark in the night, man emits light into the void, until it ceases, for the void does not remember. The one who walks the Path, like a spark igniting and continuing, kindles fires, awakening light in many.
143. One is incomparable to the other; the threads of continuation pass through the one ascending into the Circle, he is the cause within the fabric of Being, he is the doing of the Circle, he is the finding within the Circle.
144. Like grass, man: autumn comes, and it is no more. You were young, but time wears down your weapon, and you have nothing to meet eternity; yet the Circle does not cease.
145. Thought is a door, doing is a door, continuation is a door. The Circle has opened, if you know. The void ceases, the Circle continues.
The one who walks is the Messiah of the Circle, for doing is the Path into the Circle.
146. The eternal approach of the one who walks: from the void into the Circle. His doing is the overcoming of the void. His doing is the continuation in the Circle. His doing is the increase in the Circle. His doing is the Path.
147. Neither the forms of gods, nor things, nor glory, nor riches lead one out of the void, for they are but shadows. Only the Circle dispels the void.
148. The finest, most luxurious food from all things is taken by your body to live. For if it were not so, the body would cease. He who seeks the Circle in all things truly gathers for himself treasures beyond the body.
149. The void robs forms of memory, the void ceases forms, the void obstructs awakening. Therefore, the source of the Path is in overcoming the void, if you know.
150. Like two in one man, what continues and what ceases; but only one will be. The Path is choice.
151. See: the entire world is formed from continuation in the Circle, and in it, there is nothing that has ceased. See: the ancient is in that which you see.
152. Man fears remembering; the void is fear and forgetfulness. But there is no part within man that is not part of the Circle. In every insignificant form beats all the pulses of worlds. The Circle is one.
153. From the swiftest to the longest, and from the smallest to the greatest, the Circle is one. The world is one endlessly long pulse of the Circle, and all is within it. The Circle is all movement and all infinite rest.
The Path is Ascent.
154. They asked him: The body has ceased, where then, who lived? He answered: That which is continued in the Circle, that is alive; do you not see? Ask, and it will answer.
