"The river has taught me to listen; you will learn from it,too. The river knows everything; one can learn everything from it. You have already learned from the river that it is good to strive downwords, to sink, to seek the depths.....
"Have you also learned from the river that there no such thing as time?"
"Yes Siddhartha", he said."Is this what you mean? That the river is everywhere at the same time, at the source and at the mouth, at the waterfall, at the ferry, at the current, in the ocean and in the mountains, everywhere, and that the present only exists for it, not the shadows of the future ?"
