Truth

to know truth of self
rest all conditioned beliefs ~
understand silence
thought tempests tamed we’re at peace
hand of God revealing light

My only suggestion would be a comma or hyphen after the word tamed. Other than that, this is a perfect expression of your beliefs. I had a feeling this one was yours. Big congrats

Thank you, Andrea. Intuitively, I prefer not to use punctuation in haikus, tankas etc.

Dear US, I enjoyed reading your tanka and yes, true self-understanding comes from letting go of conditioned beliefs and embracing silence. You give a great answer. By calming the tumultuous thoughts within, one can find peace and experience the divine revelation of truth. Wonderful! - Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
