I'm leaving....

...this right here. Let's read it!

The more talking and thinking,
The farther from the truth.
Cutting off all speech, all thought,
There is nowhere that you cannot go.
Returning to the root, we get the essence;
Following after appearances, we lose the spirit
If for only a moment we see within,
We have surpassed the emptiness of things.
Changes that go on in this emptiness
All arise because of our ignorance.
Do not seek for the Truth;
Religiously avoid following it.

Oh man, how about that last part. ONE MORE TIME!

Do not seek for the Truth;

Religiously avoid following it.

Oh man, that's a tasty morsel. That fills my whole mouth right up with doubt. It's like permanently being the devils advocate. But wait!

This is Blythe. Clarke translates the last bit as this:

Do not seek for the truth,

only cease to cherish opinions.

Which one is true?
