So much depends upon the intention of the person saying this....or

the situation. A "secret" is something "hidden". A secret can be as

simple as a stone lying beside a path, something that is not "seen"

except by the one who chooses to bend down and pick it up.

 

A "secret" can also be used as a weapon, a way of excluding others,

a way of being separate, special and "better-than".

 

If I were phrasing the koan, I would put it very differently, "When

everything is secret, open your eyes!"

 

Nothing exists that is NOT sacred! Everything is a manifestation of

Divine Consciousness into its "pairs of opposites". Having the eyes

to see (through Grace) is the "secret".

is: "When nothing is

secret anymore, nothing is sacred anymore."

 

This i just wanted to share. I appreciate your gentleness and

generosity.
