Eternity (1974)

One man alone
In the midst
of a white Eternity,
watching the sunrise -
Pondering humanity,
trying to understand.

Time (1989)

Time is a great circle,
There is no beginning, no end.
All reruns again and again
Forever.
Listening within,
Patience without
Experience through all.

Life (1972)

Life is a
Ray of sunshine
sometimes lost behind a cloud,
then suddenly bursting forth
with brilliance
and joy.

Happiness (1972)

The city lights
twinkle in the night.
So many people living there,
So many different lives.
I wonder what each one
is doing
I wonder what each one
is thinking.
I wish I could make each one
happy.

Worshipping Life (1976)

What are you?
I am a priest.
But what do you worship?
I worship LIFE.

From where comes your knowledge?
From life and living
through each day.

Existentialism (1974)

There is no God?
No eternity?
Neither Heaven nor Hell
are places to be.
They have no calling
on someone who has
no concept of sin.

We begin to end,
We are born but to die
and be no more.
How absurd!
To come just to leave?!

You must find your own meaning!
The reason for your being.
To live just to die
is ending at beginning.

To live to enrich life,
To find my understanding
To explore the roads of inner knowledge,
The secret caverns of the mind.
To share my knowledge,
My understanding,
My joy, and my love
with all other beings.
Together, by giving - -
We find each one's
Own meaning.

Acceptance (1989)

Allow myself
to accept myself.
Allow for mistakes,
Accept my choices,
Act on my needs,
Face consequences,
Face myself - -
I am human.

Peace and Love (1973)

Peace and love
bring tranquillity and happiness.
War and hate
bring death and sorrow.
When will men learn?
When will they understand?
Is it too late?

Perspective (1972)

You think you are so important,
Yet you're only a speck of dust,
too small to even see
on a tiny ball of earth
traveling around in space.
A universe so infinite,
We can't conceive it,
We can't conceive it at all.

Look Around (1972)

So many people
rushing through their lives
not bothering to live.
Stop! Slow down!
Take a look around you.

Mind (1972)

I used to think
my mind was like
a giant filing room
With lots of little men
running around opening and closing
millions of little drawers.
I wonder what it's really like.

Did you ever try
to picture in your mind's eye
what your blood looks like
traveling around inside?

Thought (1972)

My mind - - a turmoil of thought
So confused am I.
Yet, through the web of intricate thought,
Enmeshed beyond all hope
of disentanglement,
I see it all so clear!

I Wonder (1972)

I wonder why
there are ripples in the sea.
I wonder why
green leaves turn yellow.
I wonder why
we are born to die.
I wonder why
we have created this society.
I am still wondering.
Are you?

Silence (1974)

Listen to the
Silence…
Then you will
Understand.

The Ocean (1977)

I have been walking
on the seashore.
I saw the ocean;
Now I understand.

Let Your Heart Grow (1973)

People can be
cruel sometimes.
Life can be
hollow sometimes.
The world can be
frightful at times.
But remember,
If you let your heart grow
And try to understand,
Perhaps you will realize
How truly beautiful
Our world is.
