I watched him go by, then I said to my husband, "That man must have had nothing to eat in a long time."

After years of searching, a truth seeker was told to go to a cave, in which he would find a well. “Ask the well what is 　36 , ” he was advised, “and the well reveal (告诉，揭露) it to you.” Having found the well, the seeker asked that most basic and important 　37 . And from the depths came the answer: “Go to the village crossroad, and there you shall find what you are seeking.”

Full of 　38 the man ran to the crossroad to 　39 only three rather uninteresting shops. One shop was selling pieces of metal, another sold 　40 , and thin wires were for sale in the third. Nothing and no one there seemed to 　41 much to do with the revelation of truth.

Disappointed, the seeker returned to the well to demand an 　42 , but he was told only: “You will 　43 　in the future.”

As years went by, the 　44 of his experience at the well gradually 　45 until one night, while he was walking, the sound of sitar (西塔琴) music 　46 his attention. It was wonderful and it was 　47 with great skill and inspiration.

Deeply 48 , the truth seeker felt drawn towards the 　49 . He looked at the fingers dancing over the strings. And then suddenly he let out a cry of joyful 　50 : the sitar was made out of wires and pieces of metal and wood just like 　51 he had once seen in the three stores.

At last he understood the 　52 of the well: we have already been given everything we need; our 　53 is to assemble (聚集) and use them in the proper way. Nothing is 　54 so long as we recognize only fragments (碎片). But as soon as the pieces are put together, something new appears, whose nature we could not have 　55 by considering the fragments alone.
