There is no “path”—precisely because everything is, in fact, a path.

If a person begins to search for a “path,” and when they cannot find it labels themselves as “lost,” they reveal that they have adopted a noble ideal, that they are under the sway of the suffixes “must” and “should.” The very possibility of “losing” is already due to their belief in “winning.” Yet there is no “path”—precisely because everything is, in fact, a path. One should throw away the compass in their hand and take a path at random, for only then will a “road” appear before them. Only eyes capable of seeing it, and a will capable of confronting it are required.
