| **Be Lost in the Call Lord, said David, since you do not need us,why did you create these two worlds?Reality replied: O prisoner of time,I was a secret treasure of kindness and generosity,and I wished this treasure to be known,so I created a mirror: its shining face, the heart;its darkened back, the world;The back would please you if you've never seen the face.Has anyone ever produced a mirror out of mud and straw?Yet clean away the mud and straw, and a mirror might be revealed.Until the juice ferments a while in the cask,it isn't wine. If you wish your heart to be bright,you must do a little work.My King addressed the soul of my flesh:You return just as you left.Where are the traces of my gifts?We know that alchemy transforms copper into gold.This Sun doesn't want a crown or robe from God's grace.He is a hat to a hundred bald men,a covering for ten who were naked.Jesus sat humbly on the back of a donkey, my child!How could a zephyr ride a donkey?Spirit, find your way, in seeking lowness like a stream.Reason, tread the path of selflessness into eternity.Remember God so much that you are forgotten.Let the caller and the called disappear;be lost in the Call.thank u all |
