All Is One
1.
The hidden truth is much more
Valuable than the apparent,
The inner self is much more
Precious than the outer,
Don’t look at the world as
Something distinct,
As something alien,
It is part of you,
You are part of it,
Conceive this truth,
The great truth,
2.
The bird that flies,
The fish that swims,
The horse that gallops,
The tree that grows,
The flower that blooms,
The fruit that ripens,
The clouds above,
The rivers below,
The postures ahead,
The golden sun,
The silver moon,
The platinum stars,
Uninterruptedly they repeat that
In reality, we are one:
Interconnected,
Interrelated,
Interchangeable,
Interdependent,
Chain eternal of cause and effect
Through space and time,
Unbroken link,
Divine choreography,
Miracle of life,
3.
You and I,
He and she,
It and them
Are all one,
Thus,
Your aspirations,
Your expectations,
Your hopes and fears,
My aspirations,
My expectations,
My hopes and fears,
His sufferings,
His crimes,
His great works,
Her sufferings,
Her crimes,
Her great works,
Its destitution,
Its blooming,
Its existence,
Our destitution,
Our blooming,
Our existence,
This is the beauty and
The purpose of
The world:
Its unity,
Its harmony,
Its wholeness!
