What if I could
GUARANTEE ENLIGHTENMENT
with the push of a button!?!

What if you could
AWAKEN
to all of the
LOVE, TRUTH, AND BEAUTY
in creation.......................................................... by visiting one website!?!

And what if you could do all this
WITHOUT A SINGLE WORD.

Well, it's already too late for that, isn't it? And of course it's not likely,

But what if I buried a
SPECIAL OFFER
at the end of this letter to keep you reading!?!

Don't skip to it. Instead you can
ESCAPE THIS NONSENSE
by simply linking through to TheWordless.com.

You might be thinking that
THIS IS NOT FUNNY
and you might be right, but I'm trying.

Because I want you to
LAUGH YOUR LEGS OFF
or at least that part of yourself immediately atop them. Then maybe you'll go explore TheWordless.com.

Because by now you've figured out that
WORDS CAN LIE
and that
THIS LETTER PROVES IT.

After all, it was several thousand years ago that a good old boy named Lao Tzu said,

"Those who know do not say. Those who say do not know."

Another acknowledged expert, a priest, in fact, named Anthony DeMello, said,

"Truth is never expressed in words. Truth is sighted suddenly, as a result of a certain attitude."

And a master wordsmith by the name of Rudyard Kipling both denigrated and exalted his own calling with this statement:

"Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind."

More expert testimony will follow in this letter, in case you need it, and in the event you stay with it. Otherwise you can just go to TheWordless.com. Click on stuff. The hands point to another wordless page. The chain links are.............links!?! They go places. You might never make it back. If you happen to see a there might be a chance to spend money.

What can any of this do for you? You can come to the enlightened realization that
MONEY DOES NOT MATTER
so when I show you how to
SEND SOME TO ME
you will
JUST DO IT.

Non-attachment. That's one aspect of Spirit that The Wordless wants to help you with.

But
WAIT, THERE'S MORE!
We still haven't gotten to the
SPECIAL OFFER
because you might need more
EXPERT TESTIMONY,
such as that from another master of the deceptive art named Joseph Conrad, who wrote,

"Words, as is well known, are the great foes of reality."

And, from an acknowledged Zen Master named Bankei Yotaku (1622-1693):

"Searching for words,
Hunting for phrases,
When will it end?
Esteeming knowledge
And gathering information
Only maddens the spirit.
Just entrust yourself
To your own nature,
Empty and illuminating.
Beyond this,I have nothing to teach."

Even earlier than that, the mysterious I Ching had this to say:

"A quiet, wordless, self-contained joy, desiring nothing from without and resting content with everything, remains free of all egotistic likes and dislikes. In this freedom lies good fortune, because it harbors the quiet security of a heart fortified within itself."

Finally (for now), spiritual expostulator Paul Tilich wrote,

"Better that we remain silent and allow our soul, that is always longing for solitude, to sigh without words to God."

PEOPLE WHO HAVE VISITED TheWordless.com: HAVE SAID:

I guess there is a balance somewhere because if we make ourselves too inaccessible, we leave ourselves difficult to interact with except on some metaphysically obtuse level.
The Monkess from www.dailyzen.com

We want explanation not exploration; direction not discovery.

I'm puzzled, curious, confused, and intrigued with your site.

Words cannot express how happy I was to see your email.

What the hell?

I went to your website to find out what "Wordless" is about. Amusing website...but I still don't understand the wordless principle. If you are allowed to use them, could I get a few simple words of explanation about "Wordless"?
Richard Wassersug

(NO)

Maybe now it's finally time for that

(see disclaimer)

WHAT THE HECK Carry The Wordless flag to the top of any mountain and this special offer will apply. And since I can't supply Wordless flags yet, you can just wear a Wordless T-shirt, or a Wordless Hat, hold up a Wordless Postcard so the camera can see, or especially SHOW US YOUR ROCKWACKER.
