“Reflecting pool”

Posted on June 21, 2007 By

Distraction!
Stray thoughts!
Untamed emotion!
Physical responsibility!
Push – Pull
Pull – Push
Tugging…
Away.

Calm,
Truth,
Centered within.
Untouched,
Uncorrupted,
Surrounded by the ripples
Of a stone
Cast again and again
Into the pool of Self,
Into the pool of One.

Eventually,
Ripples cease,
Absorbed
By the depths of the pool
And calm,
Returns to the surface,
Reflecting outward once more.

Do not forget the stone
Which once thrown
Disrupts the surface,
But sinks,
Absorbed ,
Transformed
By the depths.
