Features: A silent and tenacious spider. A silent and tenacious spider, I notice it standing alone on a small promontory, I notice how it explores around the vast surroundings, spitting out strands after strands of fine silk, continuously drawing out silk, tireless in speeding up the spinning. And you, oh, my soul, your landing place is surrounded by the boundless ocean of space, isolated, you keep meditating, probing, sending out, searching within all realms to connect them, until the bridge you need forms, until the ready anchor is fixed, until the silk you cast out catches somewhere, oh, my soul!
