Truth is always beyond the self.
Never try to reach it
for it will only run further away from you.
Empty yourself of all that is yours
and God, who has been waiting,
will come.
Like the sunrise
that waits for the sky
to empty itself of darkness
before it arrives.
Truth is that which is tantalizing
and mysterious,
that which is eternally unknown...
no, but not unknowable.
Never say that you have arrived,
for there is no place in which it resides.
But say this,
that you arrive now, in this moment
and yet again in the next
and then
arrive once over
in the moment after that.
Arrive like the freshness of the flower
that doesn't proclaim its arrival upon the world
but lets its fragrance
softly infuse the air around it.
