"Once the Self is known, that Self

which sees with eyes open or shut,

all sorrows end."

Katha Upanishad (800-400 BCE)

Dis-cover the treasure beyond measure

 The sparkling diamond of simplicity

 So here                                   So clear

 Waves of experience rise and fall 

 in the pure knowing of them all

 The Ocean of awareness-light

 sees the day as well as night

 Where words fail silence sings

 a stillness and freedom beyond all things

 This truth is already here so wonderfully clear

 The moon of wisdom is always glowing

 This silent knowing is neither

 coming nor going

 Truth simply

 is
