Living wisdom

We search for the meaning or nonsense of life.
Many paths lead to a dead end,
or in a hamster wheel,
where everything repeats itself.
Goals: a good life,
family, house, comforts.
These desires are our misdirections,
keep us firmly on the wrong track,
in a loop without meaning.
With Buddha’s words: ‘Be happy without desire’
We buy our happiness for ourselves,
run after this fleeing happiness,
And pay with the price of suffering.

Wisdom peels out of life,
Like rough diamonds that life moulds,
grinds and works,
fills it with meaning,
and makes it shine.
It is a recognition of universal laws,
discovery of one’s own self,
which is connected to all of us,
as from the outside, as from the inside.
Understanding that there is only ONE:
The Nameless, the Formless, the Eternal,
without beginning and end,
connection of Self and Overself,
for nothing is separate,
Everything is One.
Our intellect, our mind picks everything apart,
makes us lonely and separated from the whole.

Wisdom manages the balancing act,
between the individual and all,
brings forth the universal Pearls,
between man and man,
and aims the arrow of knowledge
at the truth and meaning of life.

He who lives in Unity,
Lives and dies for the One,
No matter if there is day or night
in one’s own life,
lives in His divine Will,
Immortalises himself to the One:
‘I and the Father are one’
