A Monk With No God

A Monk With No God

Delta wave slumber, healing and pure. 
Nothing the subconscious cannot cure.

All-in-all essence—creation’s force. 
Impossible to name life’s true source.

Permeating worlds beyond count, 
With grace, those cosmic numbers surmount.

Divine illumination within, 
Consciousness eternal, without end.

“I think,” and thus prove that I exist— 
Such an argument can be dismissed.

Unmeasured thought: no length, breadth, or weight. 
Nothing to quantify or translate.

Cosmos expanding faster than light; 
Humankind struggles with their own plight.

If nothing is greater than one’s mind, 
How shall eternity be defined?
