Sideways Karma

It cannot be seen, so it is named 'the invisible.'
It cannot be heard, so it is named 'the inaudible.'
It cannot be grasped, so it is named 'the subtle.'
These qualities defy description, so it is named 'the Market.'

In front, it is not black.
Behind, it is not white.
Without sides, it has no shape.
Lacking boundaries, it has no form.

The Sage does not approach that which has no beginning.
The Sage does not follow that which has no ending.

The Sage knows from what source he has arisen;
Unburdened by past and future, the Sage directs the present.
