The unborn wishes to be born
Don't stop the birthing
The completion wishes to give
Don't stop the receiving
The stillness wants to soar
But we fear the falling
The eternal wants to live
But we fear the dying
Let the perfection express itself
As imperfection
Let stillness speak
Let greatness become small
When freedom itself soars
Soaring is same as falling
When freedom itself lives
Dying is same as living
Undivided undivided
All is one

Emptiness fills itself
This one falls and falls
And falls all away
And empties and empties
And empties right through
And everything disappears
Yet nothing is denied!
This emptiness lives
And this emptiness dies
This emptiness sings
and this emptiness cries
And filling to the brim with sourceless love
It remains empty, empty, empty, ever-empty
And falls all away
And empties and empties
And empties right through
And everything disappears
Yet nothing is denied!
This emptiness lives
And this emptiness dies
This emptiness sings
and this emptiness cries
And filling to the brim with sourceless love
It remains empty, empty, empty, ever-empty

Suffering in the world
Seeing suffering in the world
I suffer
Tears for the victim
Anger and fear towards the aggressor
I close my eyes
In pain
When they open again
Something shifts
A question arises
Is the victim just a victim?
I look again
And the answer is no
The victim is much more
I touch her vastness
I feel her presence
I inhale her freedom
I had frozen her victimness
In my mind
Oh God!
I am the aggressor
In panic, I turn
Towards the aggressor
But he is gone too
With the victim
Into the vastness
The vastness of us all
I suffer
Tears for the victim
Anger and fear towards the aggressor
I close my eyes
In pain
When they open again
Something shifts
A question arises
Is the victim just a victim?
I look again
And the answer is no
The victim is much more
I touch her vastness
I feel her presence
I inhale her freedom
I had frozen her victimness
In my mind
Oh God!
I am the aggressor
In panic, I turn
Towards the aggressor
But he is gone too
With the victim
Into the vastness
The vastness of us all
