As if from far away, it calls to us with the voice of a child’s mind.
Rabbit is clever Rabbit has Brain that’s why he never understands anything. If we are smart, we will choose the way of Pooh. The thing that makes someone truly differentunique, in factis something that Cleverness cannot really understand. Now, like Eeyore, we complain about the results. For too long, we have chosen the way of Owl and Rabbit.
Within each of us there is an Owl, a Rabbit, an Eeyore, and a Pooh. Those who pay attention to it are too often treated as exceptions to a rule, rather than as examples of the rule of operation, a rule that can apply to anyone who makes use of it. That voice is not just the power and property of a few, but has been given to everyone. The masters of life know the Way, for they listen to the voice within them, the voice of wisdom and simplicity, the voice that reasons beyond Cleverness and knows beyond Knowledge. Everything you need for every book you read.

If Knowledge and Cleverness are allowed to go on wrecking things, they will before much longer destroy all life on earth as we know it, and what little may temporarily survive will not be worth looking at, even if it would somehow be possible for us to do so. Winnie-the-Pooh has a certain Way about him, a way of doing things that has made him the worlds most beloved bear. We can no longer afford to look so desperately hard for something in the wrong way and in the wrong place. These are the things that are being searched for anyway, through Knowledge and Cleverness, but they do not come from Knowledge and Cleverness. The one chance we have to avoid certain disaster is to change our approach, and to learn to value wisdom and contentment. In spite of what many minds have thought themselves into believing, that mistake cannot continue for much longer if everything is going to survive. Abstract cleverness of mind only separates the thinker from the world of reality, and that world, the Forest of Real Life, is in a desperate condition now because of too many who think too much and care too little. But is Brain all that important? Is it really Brain that takes us where we need to go? Or is it all too often Brain that sends us off in the wrong direction, following the echo of the wind in the treetops, which we think is real, rather than listening to the voice within us that tells us which way to turn?Ī Brain can do all kinds of things, but the things that it can do are not the most important things. Why did we follow him when we were so much younger? He is, after all, only a Bear of Little Brain. It was most commonly used to refer to an ideal form. In the morning sunshine, in the evening twilight, a small Bear travels through a Forest. With early literary examples in Confucianism, it is an important concept in Chinese statecraft and Taoism.
