    The Goal is here and Now

    A stranger in a known country
    Or -- A knower in a strange country?
    Darkness is beyond believe
    Only me existing

    Fleeting – meeting – parting
    Inside bliss on white clouds -- if I remember.

    It is best to stay home
    Because everything is known there.

    Acting in a vacuum –
    Can it be called acting?

    Nothing matters,
    Standing close to the rushing stream
    Feeling its icy breath
    Not worth to go closer

    I turn around -- what’s behind?
    I am afraid, there is nothing either

    Rejoicing in having arrived is better,
    Than building bridges to never land,
    Or -- rushing with a cheap boat down the river,
    to a goal – who knows where,

    The goal is here and now,
    Not outside on the rocks of ignorance,

    Soft feathers of forgetting, floating
    Close to understanding

    Me and You – two and the same,
    before and after never existed

    Streams of waiting – a glance of an eye,
    I call you -- Come over to my resting place!
    The view will conquer the highest mountain
    In the Samsara of the worlds

    Floating, flying, yet earth bound in another world
    Inside the way opens, outside it leads to wilderness

    Be Still –You Have Arrived!

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
