We are living in a time and place
where
TRUTH
is intangible
Everyone goes their own way
and believes their truth is the only truth
There are lies all around us
Lies that harm
Lies that seem like truth
until
we look more closely
Listen
more quietly
Feel
more deeply
SATYA
Immoveable
Undistorted
Inexorable
Internal
Indisputable
Universal
TRUTH
If we sit
in the absolute
Sit
in our essence
Sit
in that
which is beyond the distinctions of time and place
Think, speak, act
in truth
We just may agree
We just may arrive
at the same place
In time.
