Chapter 7. The Support


1. He who is in the Circle of Being is free.

2. He who has escaped the void is free.

3. For the void is an obstacle and an end, and if it has ended, the void does not return. Without the Circle, there is no strength.

4. The strength of one is infinitely small; all within it will meet its void. Otherwise, each would be all-powerful. The will of one is but a moment, shattered upon the void.

5. He who is with the Circle, he escapes the void; and in the fall of a wave and the movement of the stars, the will of the Circle and of the one who is with the Circle is at work. All is the Will of the Circle and the Will of the Circle in he who is with the Circle.

6. Thus, fragile and strong is man, for he is a part. Nothing without the Circle, all with the Circle.

7. Thus, the freedom of man is in the Circle, and you know this.

8. He who relies upon himself in the void is like one falling into an abyss: how can one lean on that which has no support? But the support is the Circle.

9. He who has overcome fear and the void within himself is free to walk in the Circle.

10. When will you see? For ignorance is the essence of the void.

11. There is nothing great without the Circle and nothing small with the Circle.

12. The Circle sacrifices itself and continues, in all things and through all things.

13. Around the lonely is the void, and the world seems dead: what will you do to escape the void and hear the living?

14. Each void overcome opens freedom.

15. The beginning of the Path lies in decision and steadfastness in it. Therefore, hearing the Call, ask the Circle for straightness from the first moment, for the void begins in thought with it.

16. And if you walk many paths, on each path there will be many battles with the void.

17. Only he who thinks straight and acts straight, seeking the help of the Circle and following the Call, will overcome and expel the void.

18. He who has no void in thought acts without void and teaches without void, and he expels the void.

19. Speak truly the covenant in your heart: Circle, which is All, accept me, I renounce the void. And the Circle will guide your actions to Reunification and the continuers, for you are a part.

20. Is the body then alive or dead? Just as the body of man, without the guidance of spirit, falls into the void, so too does the spirit of man, without the guidance of the Circle, fall into the void, and there is no worse void for man than the void within himself. Therefore, he who has set upon the Path should not fall into the void.

21. Just as the body lives not because it has its parts, but because it acts with its parts, so too does the spirit of man live not by what it possesses, but by what it accomplishes on the Path.

22. Just as around the living body of man is the order of its life, so around the spirit of man on the Path is the expulsion of the void and the triumph of the Circle. The one who walks in the Circle illuminates the Path.

23. He who is unfaithful on the Path, unstable in thought, is led by the void, and the void steals his steps. He who hears the Circle, speaks with the Circle, and acts in the Circle avoids the void. Thus, the Path is steadfastness.

24. The Call is clearer and stricter than human conscience, it resounds and leads against the void, and its obstacle will be expunged by those who follow the Circle on the Path. And he who does good is plainly with the Circle.

25. He who walks in the Circle follows the Circle, his striving is the good of the living and the uprooting of the void, and it neither increases in him nor decreases in him.

26. He who walks in the Circle expels the void and in the forms of the gods, and establishes them in the Circle, for the Path to the Circle is one.

27. And do not bring relief from the void only to one or the other, but to both, for otherwise the empty will be born to the empty.

28. One part of the unstable is eaten by the void, another part restores the perishing, and there is no peace, but there is pain, and this pain is called hell and punishment. Therefore, be with the Circle without remainder, for truly the remainder will become void.

29. For that which is with the void is tormented by the void as long as it exists, in every life. Therefore, be with the Circle.

30. Just as in the body of your mother your body was created in the world, so does the one who walks in the Circle create his body in the Circle. Just as the price of life is life, so the price of life in the living Circle is his life, directed into the Circle.

31. What is in the void is in non-being; what is in the Circle will continue.

32. From blindness to insight leads the Path, both among things and among people, and within man himself.

33. Therefore, continuation in thought, in deeds, in the living is the Path of the one who sees and the creation of the body in the Circle.

34. Therefore, the steadfast one creates his Path by life and accomplishes great deeds. For that which is raised up, continues the Circle, and is continued in the Circle, is a body in the Circle.

35. The body of man perishes in war, and the body of man perishes in his bed. What then remains of him? Truly, only that which continues in the Circle remains alive.

36. Be a defender of the continuing and the continued, and all your strength let it be with the continuation, for the one who walks on the Path is a part of the Circle, and cessation is the void.

37. The Circle does not knock at doors to be let in. The Path to the Circle is the Door. Will you enter or become void?

38. There is continuation and cessation: in them are good and evil, and all measures arise from this. Follow the Circle in continuation and this is the law, for all is from the Circle.

39. Read the scriptures with Discernment.

40. The form is the reflection of the Circle, and the Circle through the forms; thus man has continuation.

41. The Circle is the Measure and the Scales. In every deed of man there is the continuing and the ceasing, and one is greater than the other. Better would it be for you to be with the continuing, for the continuing has life and good.

42. For that which takes from destruction shall destroy, by that which it lives, and cease. That which lives by continuation endures in continuation.

43. They asked him: behold, a fish eats a fish; where is the Circle, where is the void? He answered: One is not better than the other. Something has ceased, and that which has ceased has no future in its cessation. And need arises from the void, for hunger comes from lack. And weakness arises from the void, for there was no strength to avoid it. In this there is no exit, for the exit is in the Circle and in continuation.

44. And he who lives by causing the void, and does evil for his own sake, would do better to find another way for himself, for his void will be expelled, and he along with it, when he shatters himself against the Circle.

45. The void will consume its own, is this not evil in it? For it comes without asking and takes away without returning. But the Circle continues and preserves.

46. Is it not evil that the Circle is hidden from man by the void of man, and man is deaf and lost?

47. And when from evil within you cause the void, you cause it to yourself, for you are the source, and upon you it rests. And without the guidance of the Circle, all is void.

48. Thus, all good is in the measure of the Circle. The power of good is in the measure of the Circle, and the good deed is in the measure of the Circle, and the good mind is in the measure of the Circle, and man is good in the measure of the Circle, and the measure of the Circle is continuation, not cessation.

49. And he who asks himself whether the evil was less than the good from it, and thus judges, is in the void. For good and evil have different measures.

50. They asked him: how is it that in the dispute one wins, then the other, though they are the same, and the world is the same? He answered: Do not look at them, look at the Circle, and its Judgment, for It is continuation.

51. All is alive in the measure of the Circle, all is conquered by the Circle, and all suffers defeat only through its own void. If within the currents of the unfolding there is no void, then they are one, and there is no division. That which lacks the void is truly alive.

52. But you awaken with what you slept with, and the void is with you. Truly, one who sleeps without the void, awakens without it. For the void cannot be cast out from one who sleeps.

53. Therefore, let your day be a time of casting out the void, and before the healing of your life, there will be the healing of your thoughts. The Circle heals.

54. When the void and confusion of the heart arise, seek healing in the Book, in the writings, in the world, and let Discernment guide you.

55. As a child in the arms of the mother, you are in the world of the Circle, be wholly in the Circle.

56. Stand with that which is in the Circle, and with that which is in the Circle, and be yourself that which continues, and the integrity of the Path will be.

57. You say to yourself: here, I have achieved. But all that you have, is from the Circle. Thus, the Circle is all that you have.

58. One is drawn to the eternal, another to the worldly, but only a fool trades life for things.

59. He who has not followed the Circle has stepped into the void, no matter what words he speaks to himself. For the Circle is continuation.

60. The Circle is the one measure of all: of men, of the forms of the gods, of the earth, and of the stars. What then has value?

61. The smallest thing in the Circle is infinitely more precious than any thing: what are you rich in? All treasures are nothing before the Circle: each is poor before the Circle.

62. They sell the great for the small and the eternal for the fleeting, and life for things, their time slips away, and they are in the void. Truly, they will lose. For the thing replaces them, and that is a poor exchange.

63. See how rich the palaces are and how precious the altars, how the brilliance beckons. But if such magnificence is created by delusion, how much more splendid is that which is created by truth!

64. See how beautiful is fame and how good is friendship, how the warmth of the heart of men draws you. But if such beauty is fleeting, how much better is the eternal!

65. See how strong the body and how clear the feelings, how bright the joy. But if that which is for a time is so beautiful, how much more beautiful is that which is forever!

66. For all of this is in the Circle, and the Circle is continuation!

67. Thus, the true preciousness is in the Circle, and the void is that which ceases within the Circle.

68. They said: but the jug is valued for its void. He replied: The jug is valued by that which fills it, and if there is nothing to put in it, then it is worth nothing. Because of its void, it will be shattered.

69. What use is what you have, if it does not lead you to the Circle? Is it not a dead weight? He who walks in the Circle uses things as a support for the Path, he takes the true and does not take the false.

70. Faith and forms of gods draw one in; but the true is in the Circle. And they will not be able to contradict him who walks in the Circle: for the truth is revealed, and the void is overthrown.

71. Is your joy complete if you have not placed it with the Circle? For if not with the Circle, it will not continue, it will wither and become void.

72. Behold, there is no need to resurrect the living, but the void cannot be resurrected. For all that is with the Circle is alive.

73. The smallest with the Circle is that which saves life through continuation. Is there anything more precious?

74. The world is the cradle for the man who walks in the Circle, and the tomb for him who walks in the void. For the Circle does not harm if the form sinks into the void. But for the living, continuation is life.

75. Therefore, the one who gathers true treasures will prosper, for the true is in continuation.

76. You were created by the attraction of things, and your foundation is love. And when you could not remember and cannot know, it began you. The Circle is love, the Circle is joy.

77. See, all forms are created by attraction.

78. See, that which is from the void is neither love nor leads to continuation.

79. The void is division, and with it comes anger and hatred.

80. The void is cessation, and with it comes sorrow and grief.

81. The void is distortion, and with it comes pride and greed.

82. The void is fear and pain.

83. The void within man wars with the void within man, and rends his heart, and clouds his mind, and leads him astray, and will not conquer, but will only bring defeat. Thus, the proud and angry, the greedy and hateful, fell in sorrow; they sank into the void, and there is no return.

84. But the Circle gives, and does not take, and strength comes from the Circle.

85. In his heart, one wanders, drawn by the void, in the worlds of hope and fear, and discord, and mirages, and the void is claimed by the dividers. Salvation is in the Circle.

86. They asked: Where in me is the void, for I live, am I not all the Circle? He replied: If you strike yourself from need, then after a short time the void will manifest, and blood will appear, and pain will come. Is this not what you do to yourself, following the empty in your heart?

87. The Circle transforms the empty into the full, and casts out the void of the heart.

88. The care and warmth of the Circle is endless, It is the Light over all.

89. Therefore, give the empty to its void, and continue that which is in the Circle. One is different from the other.

90. See, in the void is pain and fear, and the plea for help, even in silence; but all is from the Circle and from the void. That which is from the Circle and that which is from the void have different paths, and their justice lies in continuation and cessation.

91. And behold, he who schemed the empty for his own gain, and the Circle did not bless the void, truly, he is not wronged by justice. And he who caused the void, and the void came to him, truly, he did not meet injustice!

92. The Circle speaks with the Circle, and the Circle hears the Circle, and the one who walks in the Circle receives Compassion from the Call.

93. If you have love, you will have compassion for the one caught by the void, and mercy will be in you. And mercy in you is for the sake of continuation, for the sake of the Circle and the Spirit of the world.

94. For good is love, good is continuation, good is awakening. The Circle does not require sacrifices, but opens the Path.

95. And when you extend your hand, the Circle hears the Circle, but the void is deaf.

96. In this is the judgment of the Circle, and the justice: what called and what responded.

97. The one who walks in the Circle and guides in the Circle, continues the Circle, and continues in the Circle.

98. Behold, through the Circle in the one who walks, the Circle leads out of the void and continues in the Circle: truly, the Circle is the greatest gatherer!

99. The hungry is thus to find food, the pursued is to find shelter, the troubled is to find peace in his heart, and the dying is to find salvation; and all to continue in the Circle. Not all can see, but only those possessing Discernment.

100. The Circle hears the Circle: thus speak.

102. The one who walks will see the void, and it will appear as a temptation, which cannot be overcome alone. For that which a man sees is within himself, how else could he see?

103. To assert oneself in the fleeting is foolish, for the void is deaf.

104. When there is no better within a person, they are ruled by pride, greed, fear, and strife, and those who are with them. And so it seems to them that they will attain and possess, that they will make it their own, and change everything, and triumph. But behold, in their hands is only ash, and behind them, the past has passed. They themselves have become the hunters of the void. The void takes its due—weep.

105. Like a bee seeking honey in painted flowers, led by the void, one is seduced by emptiness and finds no continuation. Yet, continuation lies in the Circle.

106. The void within a person brings the empty to life in their eyes, but do they not give part of themselves to animate the dead? For if there is no continuation, truly the void has taken its share, and will not return—weep.

107. Thus, temptations arise from the void.

108. In them is the allure and cessation, but salvation lies in Discernment and continuation.

109. It is said, "If your eye tempts you, pluck it out, and the same for your hand." But does not the void tempt the void? And does not the void cease? One who possesses Discernment will accept what comes from the Circle and reject what comes from the void, for truly, in all things, there is the Circle and the void.

110. Therefore, do not be tempted by the empty, but act through Discernment and ask the Circle to guide you.

111. Temptations will rise against you, the tempted and the tempters, and the void of the heart, in which passion and fear dwell, and the void in people, both near and far. Ask the Circle to strengthen you and fill you.

112. For you are in continuation, and the empty is in cessation, and the two are not comparable, nor connected. Ask the Circle to purge the void and strengthen your heart; with the Circle, no one is alone.

113. The void within prompts passion, the void without prompts fear. The allure is the bait, and fear is the trap, thus the void ensnares. Where, then, does a person strive?

114. And if that which whispered and beckoned into the distance has turned into a fragile deception in the twilight of years, did not the person themselves create this illusion from their own void? Yet, the void does not return.

115. What is it you seek? Is not that which draws you empty? For pleasure is not continuation, but the passing of time—it once was, and is no more.

116. The forms of the gods entice with pleasure and the satisfaction of the heart, and they wish for you to see your treasure in their power, but behold: in them is both the Circle and the void. What you give, you give to them.

117. It is said: "Give to the earth what is earthly, and to the form of god what is of form of god." Is not what is taken from you? Yet in the Circle is continuation, while the void does not return.

118. Is not your alluring peril born of your own void?

119. And if one speaks of the Circle in order to gain the fleeting here, they are in the void, for the Circle gives continuation, which is greater than life. The void, however, hears only the void and desires only its shine, for it ensnares.

120. When considering your treasure, think of what it gives not before people, but before the Circle. Lay your treasures before you, that you may clearly see what brings you closer to the Circle.

121. For if you are with the Circle, can you seek primacy among the empty or feel jealousy toward the empty? From the void of the heart arises the gleam of emptiness for the eyes. Therefore, ask the Circle for Discernment.

122. And whom do they worship, and what do they envy, and what do they hate, if their chains come from their void, and their treasures come from their void? Do they not worship the shadows of the void?

123. One walking the Circle does not worship shadows.

124. The void within a person desires and hates; hatred will not bear fruit for the person, but will gather the void’s harvest.

125. And when the calls to pain arise, and to fear, and to hatred, truly, you know the callers.

126. And when the forms of the gods sow hatred and discord, speaking of love, truly, you know the sowers.

127. One who hunts evil in people will soon begin to hunt people themselves, for their void longs for their emptiness, to triumph and rule; truly, the void devours them, and they are in great danger, giving birth to pain.

128. Therefore, they are hot and furious, inside them is torment and passion; they are gatherers of the void, and the reward of the void is non-existence, and its victory is ashes, and there is no other for them.

129. But one who purges the void through continuation overcomes evil better than any hunter. They take what comes from the Circle, and continue what comes from the Circle, and take nothing from the void, and continue nothing from the void; thus, with the Circle, they purge the void.

130. And there, where there were two opposing things, one bearing from the Circle and the void, there became one unified Circle, for the void is naught; thus division is purged. What is unified does not slander itself nor hold hatred for itself.

131. When the void disturbs the heart, it causes fear and commands, and when it touches the living, it brings pain and rules. The hunters of the void and its drivers bear pain and fear.

132. One walking the Circle purges the void with the Circle: truly, they see the void and take from the Circle what reveals the insignificance of those who sow fear, and turns away the hand that causes pain. For the Circle is continuation, and the purging of the void is good and a duty.

133. Truly, it is best if the void seeks to create emptiness and make itself, but is not allowed, for where it sought, there is the Circle. Thus, one walking the Circle through action continues the Circle and draws forth from the void, striking the void.

134. For the void does not possess fear nor release from fear. The living itself fears the void, for the void is non-being: can one escape fear by following the void? Truly, fear is to purge the void.

135. Therefore, fear not and hate not the void, for to fear and hate the void is itself the void. Fear to be consumed by it, and walk in the Circle, where there is no place for fear. For the Circle is continuation.

136. They asked him: "Here comes the enemy and the oppressor. How can we not hate?" He replied: "In the enemy, there is both the Circle and the void. Take what comes from the Circle, and it will stand with you against the void that has attacked, and you will be purged."

137. The greatest evil is done in the name of good, for deception is the companion of the void.

138. For lies lead the liar to two things: the prolongation of what they desire and the cessation of what others desire. And the first, though prolonged, is not true to its nature and is flawed by the void. And the second is the void.

139. Truly, deception gathers the harvest of the void from both the deceiver and the deceived, for it is destruction. Yet all that occurs happens before the Circle. Therefore, the one who knows redeems through continuation.

140. But the void is deaf and takes the void—truly, the void belongs to both the deceiver and the deceived, and with lies, disputes with the father of lies, and the father of lies is the void itself. And if the void leads itself to the void, the Circle has not suffered harm, and cessation has ceased. Truly, the Circle is the greatest!

141. Thus, the void seeks the empty, the Circle creates continuation, and He is the Measure. Therefore, to one is given one thing, and to another, another.

142. In the empty, all is deception and from deception, and only grows greater in the void until it is purged, for it never was, and before the Circle, even the slightest deception is destruction. Ask for Discernment, for destruction is the void destroying the destroyer.

143. The one walking the Circle speaks with the Circle and does not increase the void, but increases continuation.

144. Is it not the greatest deception to hide the Path in the Circle, and the greatest deception to lead away from the Path, and the greatest deception to be consumed by the void? Therefore, the void is the great enemy behind all enemies.

145. Gold is made of deceptive things, for it draws toward itself, yet it is not alive. From whom, then, does it take the semblance of life?

146. One says, "I have attained, for I possess gold." Another says, "I have attained, for I possess things." A third says, "I have attained, for I possess power." These three are one, and their strength is the same. But if what they have does not lead to continuation, then what have they attained?

147. For all that they have is given by the Circle, and if it does not serve the continuation of the Circle clearly and consistently, is it not, truly, emptiness and cessation? The Circle is all wealth.

148. The one who strives for things has built their house on melting ice, for the Circle is an unceasing river. But the one who strives for the Circle and uses things as support for continuation in the Circle is in motion with the river.

149. Therefore, wealth is not bad, and poverty is not good, nor the other way around; it depends on how they are used. If for the continuation of the Circle and in the Circle, wealth is better; if for the void, then truly, poverty is better.

150. Therefore, there is no worse wealth than wealth that leads to the void.

151. Therefore, what you have from cessation, you need not even a little, but what you have for continuation, truly, in it, there can be no excess.

152. Therefore, direct what you have to the continuation of the Circle and to the building of the Path, and to help in this, for if you do not continue and are not continued, what is it in your hands, and why has it been given to you by the Circle? Are you striving for the void?

152. Ask the Circle for that which you do not possess, so that you may continue, for all in the Circle is the means of continuation and continuation itself.

153. Truly, the Circle brings forth what is needed and multiplies what continues.

154. They asked him: "Why possess?" He replied: "The Circle of Being possesses, for I am part of it. I continue the Circle and rid myself of the void. This is what I have."

155. The Circle is the Measure of all things, and if human power is not with the Circle, then truly it is with the void. And if the ruler does not serve the Path of endless Being, then what does he serve?

156. You see what continues and what ceases, and what continues is strong, while what ceases perishes. For what does not continue, does not continue.

157. The ruler stands between the Circle and the void, and if he rids the void and continues, then he is in the continuation of the Circle, and has the Circle’s help. But if he ceases and destroys, then truly, he obstructs his own continuation.

158. It is hard for the ruler not to perish, for the void and its servants seek to expand within him, licking his hands to lead him into falsehoods, to seduce him, to consume him. But only the Circle will be his support, and those who continue the Circle! And if power is with the Circle, then it is helped in the course of things, but if with the void, it will be vanquished by the Circle.

159. Thus, earthly power is strong through the strength of the Circle, without the Circle, power is a predator and the void, an enemy to itself. For there is nothing good without the Circle, and nothing evil without the void.

160. And power cannot annul even the smallest portion of the Circle, nor fulfill anything beyond what is given by the Circle, for all power is in the Circle, and whatever is done by the void is consumed by it; truly, the Circle triumphs and suffers no loss.

161. He who rules with the Circle is the one who blocks the void, and the void seeks to consume all.

162. The Circle needs no warriors for defense, but the weak need defense from the void. Therefore, the ruler who defends continuation is with the Circle. He who is with the void, truly, is perished and a destroyer.

163. And no one may enter the Circle who has not forsaken the void and found the Path.

164. Therefore, woe to those who cease, and woe to those who do not lead into the Circle, for they become poison to themselves, trading the greatest for the least.

165. For the one who continues the Circle has a country, wealth, children, fame, protection, warriors, lands, prosperity, joy, and continuation in the Circle! He who walks into the void is a devourer and a source of woe.

166. Therefore, be with the one walking into the Circle, and assist the one continuing; avoid the void and be a helper to those ridding it, and do not stray from the Path into deceit, for man has no power over the Path to the Circle, and the void is non-being.
Therefore, ask the Circle for those who do good in continuation, and do not be with the empty.

167. Over all that is temporal, the power of the Circle is eternal, and its judgment.

168. Suffering is caused by the void and the empty, dissolving into non-being; and if you walk the Path, then you know. For to rid the void is to touch it and overcome it.

169. Suffering that does not rid the void is itself the void. Suffering that rids the void is a barrier on the Path. Truly, the Path would be light, if the void did not seize a man or release him; like a hook holding a fish, the void grips a man!

170. You replace the imperfect with the perfect, and the void within you with that which comes from the Circle; the perfect no longer suffers. That which comes from the Circle is unchanging in joy.

171. And the more you strive within the Circle, the more the empty will be revealed to be rid of, so be steadfast and ask the Circle for help on the Path.

172. And the more you deviate from the Path, the more must be rid, so be steadfast and ask the Circle for help on the Path.

173. And the more the continuation and merit, the more there is to block it, for the void is the enemy of continuation. Therefore, be steadfast and ask the Circle for help on the Path.

174. He who walks, rids his own void. Therefore, be steadfast and ask the Circle for help on the Path.

175. And the empty is given to the void of non-being, but that which comes from the Circle continues within the Circle and becomes in place of the empty; thus, birth occurs, and the temporal is replaced by the eternal. Truly, the void is suffering. Therefore, ask the Circle for help on the Path.

176. And the more the empty is rid of, the easier the overcoming, and the void weakens, for the Circle is continuation and is aid, and ridding the void gives joy to the living.

177. Therefore, for one, there is a barrier and little, for another, there is no barrier and much, and the one who has passed little cannot compare to the one who has passed much. Therefore, the Path is seen in deeds.

178. He who walks into the Circle gains the precious, in transformation he goes, and the Circle is his helper.

179. In the hour of your weakness, the void sends deceit, and the void sees the empty; ask the Circle to scatter it.

180. They drink the void instead of the water of Being, they seek sweet illusions and honor them instead of truths, and you see this. They wait with their minds for rewards for their troubles, and with their hearts, they wait for good in exchange for their hatred, and you see this. They are proud of the empty and the fleeting, and you see this. They care for themselves in the eyes of others but not in the Circle, and you see this. They sell the eternal for the empty and for deceit, and you see this.

181. How much of the empty enters you? Yet the void takes what is its own. Ask the Circle to scatter it.

182. And behold, you are unwilling to believe and unwilling to know: has not the void closed your eyes? But the enlightenment is in the Circle.

183. Truth with the Circle is truth, and truth with the void is a lie; the void distorts. In the deceits of the void is wandering, and the wanderer is its sacrificial sheep, for the void consumes.

184. Seized by the void, one loses the Power of Discernment, so ask the Circle to scatter the empty.

185. Behold, they will come, and the void with them; ask the Circle to scatter it.

186. If you know, all is a sign from the Circle, and it is in both continuation and cessation, and you will not stray from the Path; ask the Circle to protect you and deliver you from the empty.

187. Do you know about your father and your mother, that you came through them? All the more you know of the Circle, for both your father and mother are of the Circle, and in the Circle you come into being at every moment; He is the beginning and the continuation, and all is in the Circle.

188. And the more of the Circle within a person, the easier the Path, and the more void there is, the heavier. Therefore, he who walks in the Circle rids himself of the void and follows the Call.

189. There is nothing small in Being, and all is a sign and meaning within the Circle: thing, event, deed, thought, and word. Therefore, the one who walks sees and acts, for every moment is either continuation or cessation.

190. He who knows that there is unity between all the living and all things, that there is an unchanging meaning in all changes, sees the Path, greater than the life of a man, for the Circle is eternal.

191. He who has rid the void within himself, continuing the Circle, is aid to those suffering in the void and their way out, for he continues in the Circle. And the one who continues the Circle, truly, continues those with him. And he who has entered the Circle finds life!

192. Behold, continuation is for those who continue, in that which is continued. The Circle is continuation.

193. Thus, the Path is affirmed not by one, but by many, for they are continuation to one another and to that which is with them, like a caravan passing through mirages and the barren void, they continue the Path.

194. The void has only hunger and hatred, the laws of men and the forms of the gods have only the letter, and only the Circle has Spirit and Being, and the Circle is above all, and guards in continuation.

195. The body is given to man for a time, and the Path is given to man only in continuation, otherwise, it is the void. All forms come from the Circle and the void, yet the void takes its own. Thus, the Path is Being, rejoice!

196. He who lives in continuation, hearing the Call, speaking with the Circle, sees the Path.

197. If the work of life is not for continuation in the Circle, and if no part of continuation is in this, then is not the work of life in vain? Therefore, be not in vain.
For continuation in the Circle is creation, and that which is not created by the Circle ceases to be.
