"...but woe to those who take the finger for the moon... "
Languages and words are merely
symbols with which to express the truth.
A finger points at the moon,
but the moon is not at the tip of the finger.
And you don't need the finger to see the moon.
Words point at the truth,
but the truth is not in words.
To seek illumination through words is
to get lost in the web of words and not see the truth.
