you must realize what is at stake here

memento mori

 

You must realize

that what is at stake here

does not reside in words and phrases:

it is like sparks from struck flint, like the brilliance

of flashing lightning. However you mange to deal

with this, you cannot get around losing

your body and life.

entrust yourself to your own nature

posted in Uncategorized on June 11, 2024 by Brian

 

Searching for words,

hunting for phrases, when will it end?

Esteeming knowledge and gathering information

only maddens the spirit. Just entrust yourself

to your own nature, empty and illuminating.

Beyond this, I have nothing

to teach.
