   I have never been near here, but from my intellectual   
   understanding, I agree fully about the ultimate state.   
   In three-century-old French, Madame Guyon describes   
   something quite similar. The Buddha's non-doing and   
   Daoism's non-doing fall also in line, which is really out   
   of line.
