The Spirit of Truth

Everywhere where you are tied,
a vortex of passing is formed,
and the first knot of the bond is you.

How will you unbind the last knot in yourself,
if you don’t leave the first one?

Someone fights to be someone directly,
someone else accepts that he is nobody indirectly
but only the one who is nobody directly
as everyone among us
blooms in the fields and scents in the flowers.

You live out of Him,
so let Him live out of you.

There is no other life.

You live inside a crossed gap
of the future and the past
as the left and the right
of the uncrossed present.

But you choose the side
and your delay of the redemption that follows.

Everyone is
and will become only what he is,
because there is no world to enter,
out of which one could exit.

We live in the arc of Adam’s rib of beginning and end,
which dictates the logic of everyday life
as a cage for the birds of the sky.

Someone is inside the cage of someone who is dreaming of heaven,
someone inside the cage of the heavens above him,
and someone inside the cage of his own palms.

But the spirit blows where it wants to
from the eternal circle without beginning and end
and comes to life only where two join into a circle.

You are always in contact either with the known in front of you
or with the unknown inside of you,
and you only make pair with one of them
until the day it matures in your pair
and falls like an apple from a black-and-white tree
into the chosen world.

And the unknown will enter through your door
in front of your face as an eternal known,
for you were the gatekeeper of its eternity.

And the known will enter through your door
into the eternal world of the unknown,
for you were the gatekeeper of its eternity.
