The Great Mystery…



*

Approach to the mystery

is silent, solitary

and free from all self-seeking.

*

It is silent because in comparison

with the mystery all speech

is feeble and imperfect.

*

It is solitary because the mystery

draws closer to us in solitude.

*

It is free of self-seeking because

the souls of our ancestors

ascended to the mystery

in wordless adoration.

– Ohiyesa
