| To All,
A poem I found and wanted to share...
Nome
from Mandala Four of Self-Knowledge
Knowledge is constant,
As Being ever is.
When Knowledge is constant,
So is its Bliss.
With ignorance, a life of
Happiness is impossible.
With Self-Knowledge, profound
wisdom,
Ignorance is impossible.
There is never a good moment
To dwell in ignorance,
Never an appropriate time
To suffer or believe in the unreal.
Dualism is required
For one to feel fear.
Nondual is the Self,
Its Bliss and its Being
Never ceasing, not decaying,
And never destroyed.
Reality is nondual.
Dualism is false.
Belief in duality
Yields a stormy ride on a calm sea,
A nightmare when quietly in bed.
Disquietude when everything is fine,
A corner in the Infinite,
Death in the Eternal,
The unreal in the Real.
Knowledge depends not
On time or on place;
No need to wait
To know one's own Self
Death differs not from life:
If dreaming alive,
One dreams in death;
If awake to the Self,
There is no life or death.
Know Being as it ever is,
Consciousness as Knowledge itself,
Blissful immortality is yours
When this imperturbable Self
Is realized and this
Knowledge is constant

| Nice poem, sometimes things just can't be explained in words. This poem does a good job for those who have ears to hear. |
