How To Be Human
It is never too late to become human,
to see reality and your place within it
not as a perceived world
or a conceptual reality
but as it is.
When you have risen from all thoughts of self
and awakened to the true nature of things
you will be just as human as the Buddha was.
Nothing in creation is inconsequential,
everything before you and after you
is you arriving – you happening.
See nothing as apart from your mind;
that empty thoughtless mind,
that Consciousness.
then a frameless window
will open in your mindfulness,
a perfect all seeing vision
of the ALL.
