Stillness by Robert Goslin

Tormented friend,why do you still enquire
And thirst to know the sum of things entire?
The more you strive the less you will succeed;
The mind cannot fulfil the spirit's need.
Striving too hard begets a troubled mind
And those who strive will always stay confined.
For you are not the body, not the mind
But LIGHT IMMORTAL, mortally enshrined.

So live in bliss-enjoy the simple task;

Seek not know and do not dare to ask

Why you are here, or what your fate will be.

Be still and listen to the symphomy
Which your surroundings play in unity.
The part cannot exist without the whole;
The whole cannot exist without the part;
And reason has no place in cosmic art.

When stillness reigns, you are the sum of things;
The nothing and the All that Oneness brings.

When stillness reigns, you are infinity

And sense the nearness of Divinity.
Just as the pigeon navigates in flight
And homeward speeds before a hint of night;
So too, the soul, will homeward soar one day

Without a mind to guide it on its way.

*********************************

Be still and listen to the sound of Oneness,

Breathe, 

Leave the mind behind.   

Look at this sunrise and hear 

The sounds of nature coming to life once more  

As if today she was awakened

From her deep slumber.

Be grateful for being a part of it, it a part of you.

Be still once more and "sense the nearness of Divinity"
You are "Light Immortal"

            

I'm being still...................................................

Are you?
