Seeking and Finding



From Hesse's Siddhartha:

Seeking means to have a goal.

Finding means to be free, to have no goal.

When one is seeking, he only sees the thing he seeks. He will be unable to absorb anything because he is only thinking of that.

When one is living in the present with no goal, one is in the mindset to be free, one is in the mindset to find what one might not have even known they were looking for.
