Self-deception

Only those who rule themselves
can be a wise ruler:
Without violence and lies,
contempt and hatred,
through compassion and balance,
and love for all others,
a role model of wisdom and goodness,
and not of deceitful cunning,
selfish interests
of power and money,
possessions and corruption.

Man: “Know thyself!”
You have forgotten
who you really are.

Your questions to yourself
have dried up,
that’s why you don’t know yourself,
nevertheless you think you know yourself.

What an irony and self-deception…

Has man changed?

There used to be an Inquisition,
people were persecuted
because they were different,
looked different, behaved different,
burned as witches and sorcerers.
Reasons were sought to hunt them,
reasons were easily found.

And today?
Reasons are sought
to wage wars,
to gain power,
to maximise Profits,
to assert selfish interests,
always on the shoulders
of a victim, someone who is guilty,
something that is quilty.

Has mankind changed in essence?
Yes, he has become smarter
how to hunt down his Prey.
He lies and deceives
just to achieve his goals.
So basically he has not changed
only his methods.

If this ‘man’ wants to become a man,
he must change from the ground up,
turn criticism against himself
educate himself to be honest,
no longer live for himself,
sacrifice his desires
for the good of his fellow human beings,
the people around him.
He must learn humility.
No longer ‘I come first’
but all others first,
Service to man.

When this wave breaks over humanity
then we can say: unity of man,
Oneness with all,
brothers and sisters in God,
religion of Love

One planet,
one mankind,
one love,
one Over-Soul.

Where is our Home?

Is our home there
where we were born?

Is our home there
in our parental home?

Is our home there
in our village, our town?

Is our home there
in the land of our birth?

Is our home
our blue planet?

Is our home
in our solar system?

Milky Way, universe, multi-universe?

Everything there is transient,
subject to the process of change.

Our true home
does not dissolve,
is a timeless being in God,
is a home for all of us.

Mind and Soul

The soul unites,
is one with all souls

The mind is divided,
is alone, separated from all other minds.

The mind lives in the ego,
is self-orientated.

The soul is a ray
of the eternal sunlight.

The soul connects
humanity with humanity.

The mind destroys, lies, and deceives,
has a cold heart.

Soul and mind
in one body.

Soul has a future, not the mind…

Light and darkness


Is not seeing, light-seeing,
day-seeing, sunshine,
penetrating the darkness?

The soul dwells in the light,
but the mind dwells
in pitch darkness.

Dark is the fear therein,
blind on the paths
where abyss cries and shudders.

Night surrounds ignorance,
kidnaps the blind man,
robs him of his conscience.

Love is light,
lighthouse in the night,
harmony, self-resting.

But day-seeing without love
is blind seeing, aimless living.

True seeing – is true believing.
