Opening Of The Mind
By
Bing Escudero
An open mind begins with a closed
mouth. We can take a better view of
this with a sense of humor. Or else,
some truths can be just too crashing to
an expanded ego.
For example, when there is a
gathering of closed minds, it is easy to
find as many mouths that outdo each
other because they can hardly stay
closed. The secret of a closed mouth is
with the tongue, since the mouth has…

magic is creation
nothing hidden or profound

The text in question is titled:
A Masterpiece of Editorial Forgery
With this new translation, made by a long time student…
