There Is No Time in This World

In the past, before the great mist appeared, everything began with nothingness and then came into existence. However, there is nothingness in the extreme. Therefore, if there is nothing, there is nothing, and if there is nothing, there is nothing. When there is no mutual creation, the heaven and the earth open up and transform into thousands of ways. The sun rises, the moon sets, the stars move, this is the normal way; misfortunes and blessings occur day and night, birth, old age, sickness and death are also the normal way. Those who follow the principles of heaven and earth and follow the ordinary way are called ordinary people. The ordinary people are as numerous as dust. However, there are those who are unwilling to do so and want to practice the extraordinary way and glimpse the ordinary principles. The world calls them cultivation. Cultivators cultivate their body, mind, and nature. Therefore, most of the cultivators are hermits, and they are often heard about but rarely seen.
