THE ARCHER WITHOUT BOW, WITHOUT ARROW, WITHOUT TARGET
The archer learns when he forgets all about the rules of the way of the bow and goes on to act entirely on instinct. In order, though to be able to forget the rules, it is necessary to respect them and to know them. When he reaches this state, he no longer needs the instruments that helped him to learn. He no longer needs the bow or the arrows or the target, because the path is more important than the thing that first set him on that path. Between one action and the next, the archer remembers everything he has done; he talks with his allies; he rests and is content with the fact of being alive
