beneath the surface of every form. Your boredom would

vanish if you had more of a clue about the Reality I know.

    When the sun is gone,
    the soul's clarity fades.
    There is nothing but idiocy and mistakes.
    We are half-dead, inanimate, exhausted.

    The way finite minds most want to be
    is an ocean with a soul swimming in it.
    No one can describe that.
    These words do not touch you.

    Love Is the Treasure The temple of love is not love itself; True love is the treasure, Not the walls about it. Do not admire the decoration, But involve yourself in the essence, the perfume that invades and touches you— the beginning and the end. Discovered, this replaces all else, the apparent and the unknowable. Time and space are slaves to this presence.

    Now silence.
    Unless these words fill with nourishment
    from the unseen, they will stay empty,
    and why would I serve my friends
    bowls with no food in them?
