The Ground of Being

I remain with the nameless ground of everything, There is no path, but a path arises as I remain, In this way I effortlessly accomplish all, The dualistic mind wishes that there was one way, Indeed fights on one side or the other, There is no one face to the absolute, The great mystery is beyond ultimate label, In this way every myth is but one facet of the ground of being: The Tao, Shunyata, Dharmakaya, Great emptiness, The sky like nature of mind, God, Silent presence, The great self, The Great Spirit, The hidden essence, The heart, The infinite, The divine matrix, The field, The force.
