- synopsis
- Reader of the sutras: Sw Anand Vimal.
- The sutra
- And some of you have called me aloof, and drunk with my own aloneness,
- And you have said, "He holds council with the trees of the forest, but not with men."
- "He sits alone on hilltops and looks down upon our city."
- True it is that I have climbed the hills and walked in remote places.
- How could I have seen you save from a great height or a great distance?
- How can one be indeed near unless he be far?
- And others among you called unto me, not in words, and they said:
- "Stranger, stranger, lover of unreachable heights, why dwell you among the summits where eagles build their nests?
- Why seek you the unattainable?
- What storms would you trap in your net,
- And what vaporous birds do you hunt in the sky?
- Come and be one of us.
- Descend and appease your hunger with our bread and quench your thirst with our wine."
- In the solitude of their souls they said these things:
- But were their solitude deeper they would have known that I sought but the secret of your joy and your pain,
- And I hunted only your larger selves that walk the sky.
- But the hunter was also the hunted;
- For many of my arrows left my bow only to seek my own breast.
- And the flier was also the creeper;
- For when my wings were spread in the sun their shadow upon the earth was a turtle.
- And I the believer was also the doubter;
- For often have I put my finger in my own wound that I might have the greater belief in you and the greater knowledge of you.
- And it is with this belief and this knowledge that I say,
- You are not enclosed within your bodies, nor confined to houses or fields.
- That which is you dwells above the mountains and roves with the wind.
- It is not a thing that crawls into the sun for warmth or digs holes into darkness for safety,
- But a thing free, a spirit that envelops the earth and moves in the ether.
- If these be vague words, then seek not to clear them.
- Vague and nebulous is the beginning of all things, but not their end,
- And I fain would have you remember me as a beginning.
- Life, and all that lives, is conceived in the mist and not in the crystal.
- And who knows but a crystal is mist in decay?
