Thus
the boy sat at the edge of the well and made sure that nothing fell
into it; at one time, however, his finger hurt so much that he put it
spontaneously into the water. “This is the nature of pure knowledge: it gilds everything that
is brought in touch with it, and the gold stays. “All too much the boy tried to make himself believe that his finger was not golden - but obviously it was different. “This
is the nature of the wealth which springs from the source of pure knowledge:
this wealth is not imagined - it is experienced by the one blessed with
it as concretely as any other practicality of daily life, and even if
he tries to deny this experience - he would not succeed if he were true
to himself. Therefore it is not possible to dissuade someone from the truth and its blessing once he has been in touch with it - no matter how small and how short his contact with the source of wisdom might have been. All this was suddenly obvious to the king's son. |
