ALLIANCE OF SILENCE

 

 

Man born in the field, united with the One,
emanated from mystical awareness,
from the creative lips of the earth,
you are, within yourself, the world.

 

You long to cleanse the rust that ruins you,
the mortal corrosion of your journey,
that outer crust, that veil of mist,
the tangled shroud of life.

 

Do not gaze upon the reflection
of mercury in darkened blackness;
behold instead the pure, original dawn,
and rise upon the wings of your own breath.

 

You are tormented by the burning desire
to reach the truth, to break the seals;
restlessly you meditate,
seeking complete reintegration.

 

The mind is capricious,
elusive, fevered, and turbulent,
unyielding in its patterns,
running wild through vain desires.

 

Quiet the whirlwind of your mind
and transcend the threshold of the senses;
embrace the balance
of the eternal intelligence beneath.

 

Triumph in the inner struggle,
upon the battlefield of your dreams,
for you are the warrior
who contends against yourself.

 

Dispel the shadows of doubt,
weigh down the complaint of the fleeting captive
with the living eloquence of the sound
hidden within your still enclosure.

 

Listen to the messenger of space
dwelling deep within you,
creating molecules of sunlight
in the soil touched by your barefoot step.

 

You must bring order to the cosmic order
from a humble state of emptiness,
infinite dynamism —
the primal structure of the sounding end.

 

Your silence shall become a new word,
creator of the universal song,
composed of the letters of peace
that vibrate like the break of dawn.
