50
"The Master gives himself up
to whoever the moment brings.
He knows that he is going to die.
and he has nothing left to hold on to;
no illusions in his mind,
no resistance in his body.
He doesn't think about his actions,
they flow from the core of his being.
He holds nothing back from life,
therefore he is ready for death,
as a man for sleep after a long days work."
