It makes more sense if you do. Since we humans analyze things by thinking, this particular piece was very confusing, but when you stop and DON'T think, it slowly starts to make a modicum of sense. Further non doing would probably help one understand these things better.
A quote from the Stephen Mitchell Tao Te Ching, Tidbit 47 states that "The more you know, the less you understand." I think it describes the chapter from Modern Buddhist Bible quite well.

What is the point in going to college then? I think that you are here in order to gain understanding and insight into a respected field. Does this mean the less you know? I am here to think and to use my brain so that I can understand.
