147. The avenue

```

Imperfect is the avenue

Of the blind mind.

Everybody knows it.

But who discards the mind?

No one.

Why?

Because

One day the mind

Will be transformed.

Perfect is the avenue

Of the illumining heart.

Everybody knows it.

But who pleads to be allowed

To stay with the heart?

No one.

Why?

Because

All are jealous of the heart's

Efficiency and sufficiency. ```
