58. The mountain stirred not. Therefore went the prophet unto the mountain, and spake unto it. But the feet of the prophet were weary, and the mountain heard not his voice.

What matters is that, unless one acts with one's whole being as if it all matters - until one gets completely past oneself and unreasonably pours oneself unreservedly into the Work because there is nothing else one can do - there is no progress. There is no price that can bring success, except everything whatsoever about oneself.

Or, at least, that's a good start.

But the journey is in vain. It's only purpose is to exhaust the seeker and make his/her feet weary. Only then are they ready to sit in silence and wait.

Adolescence raises the stake and works toward taking more reasonable action to get a result. In this striving and yelling, though done with persistence, the result is elusive. Furthermore, effort has been put forth and weariness has set in, possibly doubt, and who knows what else. Silence persists most and is beyond all striving.

This, I believe, is a necessary stage. One must struggle, yell against the gods, grow weary, and work through life's obstacles. Anything worth obtaining is worth struggling for a bit.
