You ain't goin' nowhere

    

"Ordinarily, when you step on a path, you're going somewhere. You start on it, traverse it, and, if all goes as planned, you arrive at your goal or destination.
    The path to freeing the mind is not like this. This path neither begins nor ends. Thus it's not really a path to somewhere.
    Furthermore, the moment you set your foot on it, you've already traversed its entirety. Just to be on the path is to complete it. I mean this literally, not symbolically or metaphorically."
