quietude
opening
inward
crossing the bridge
for the material
to merge with
the spiritual
is as natural
as it can appear to be
impracticable
when a strengthless body
sore of fatigue
and a brightness of lightness
in the spirit
are simultaneously present
there is a bridge
to be found
and crossed
for the material
to merge
with the spiritual
and the spiritual
to merge
with the material
accepting our limitations
is opening towards
the realm
where everything
can happen
praise is
a description of
what is
rather than
an intention of
how we would like things
to be
when we become able to
describe
what is
rather than
how we would like things
to be
beauty emerges
inevitably
trying to behave
chaotically
when one is
systematic
in order to please
a chaotic mind
is going against nature
and going against nature
is going against life
being given to observe
the behaviour
which has been ruling
the mind
while one has been searching to
understand
all life long
is a subtle bliss
a merciful
and compassionate invitation
into truth
staying in the darkness
long enough
for light
to pierce the way out
can feel
unbearable
and might be
all
we were ever meant
to do
an unpleasant dream
revealing a nightmare
revealing the distance from
the life being lived
to
the reality perceived
revealing that
somewhere
along the road
the capacity to perceive
was lost
leaving behind
an illusion of understanding
which obstructs
the way
leading to
life
freedom occurs
where we are given
to answer
our call
whatever
that call
might be
courage is requested
to take the time
discerning
what our call
is made of
wisdom settles
while we live it
with a humble
and contrite heart
