孤獨是專注的必要條件
一座你和祂之間的懸索吊橋
一座你和祂之間的懸索吊橋
只許暗夜夢遊走過
不復記憶
醒來忽覺猶在此岸
—— 孤獨是專注的必要條件，專注是集中的門檻，進門之後你很好奇地拾階而上，那是三摩地往復循環的上下階梯，祂、他、它（ta）如一，而你自己是此在之ham'，所以ham' ta自↔它他祂，無別。（荷蘭藝術家馬克斯·艾雪（M. C. Escher）在1960年創作了《上下階梯》（Ascending and Descending）。這幅作品描述了一個永無止盡、循環往復的階梯，反映了潘洛斯階梯（Penrose stairs）這一幾何學悖論，讓人感受到永恆的循環與視覺錯覺。

Still on This Shore
Loneliness is the necessary condition for focus
A suspension bridge between you and Him
Only permitted to crossed by a sleepwalker in dark night
Leaving no memory
Waking suddenly to find myself still on this shore
—— Loneliness is the necessary condition for focus, and focus is the threshold of concentration. Once you cross the threshold, you curiously ascend the steps—a staircase of samadhi, cycling endlessly up and down.
(In 1960, the Dutch artist M.C. Escher created "Ascending and Descending," a work depicting an infinite, cyclical staircase. It reflects the geometric paradox known as the Penrose stairs, evoking a sense of perpetual motion and visual illusion.
