What Scott says

And what you find is that the doorways appear much more often when we are relaxed, when we're not trying to control everything. In the Zhuangzi in Taoism, they say something like the butcher's knife never needs to be sharpened because the butcher's knife, when it cuts through the animal or the cow or the pig, I think it's a pig, it finds the spaces in the joints. So the blade never dulls. That's what I mean.

When we can see fully, and when we are relaxed, but with great intention at the same time, then the blade is sharp and the movement goes right through the spaces. And there's then no obstacle, right? Because you see that everything is made up out of what you are, and that even that is not real. And the spaces between it are just as as what you're made up of And in that, you can't get lost and you won't stay stuck.
