two thousand five hundred
and sixty three years ago-
a sage appeared who vowed
to save us from this state of dis-ease
and life’s seeming un-satisfactoriness.
now, for eighty generations
teacher after teacher,
student after student,
has passed on the obvious
truths of this instruction.
the simple and the profane,
the obvious and the hidden,
what must we do to awaken,
from our sleeping malaise?
we merely are conduits
of the eternal truth,
if we have awoken
to the eternal truth,
the realization that
my life is not my own
leads to the understanding that
I must help to ferry across
all sentient beings
for there is no separation of my self.
there is nothing special
in awakening to this moment,
yet the awakening is
beyond thinking
and beyond our thoughts.
jesus said to his disciples;
“through me life can be gained,
only through my life
can union with God be assured!”
what is this teaching
of mysterious wonder
and uncertainty?
we have come to this life
with no possessions
and no ideas to be achieved.
why do we now
wish to pervert the procession
and corrupt it with our thoughts?
