Non Conceptual Thinking

Silences … between thoughts
Non-conceptual thinking
Taste of real freedom
Then, every reader wants to write a book

Books

Those monks who invented stillness
And taught the Dalai Lama of Tibet
Are unknown … as you will be, too
Though Seers share freely with tourists

Tourists …

Hear voices, too many, too often
Those who meditate a month feel like sharing
They ask long questions at gatherings
How do I discern the right voice?

Voices …

Is it my ego?
Is it Being?
Is it?
Is
IT

Your evocative poem evokes the notion of "The silence beween breaths"
