Enter Here, Dear Friend

Enter here, dear friend.
Enter the holy shrine of your self.
Leave your torrential downpour of sorrows
outside with your muddy, worn-out shoes
and all your tortured thoughts about
your disintegrating kingdom.

Leave behind all that burdens your soul,
all that destroys your peace,
all that scatters your love
into the four winds of the world.
Let go of all you have cried for
and all you have won.
Just let it all go…

Enter here, while you still can,
while you still have holy breaths
and tears that dare to hope
for the unseen Beloved.

Enter here, dear friend.
Enter the holy shrine of your self.
Immerse your soul in the stream of Holy Sound.
Become a radiance of adoration.
Become ineffable bliss.
Become one again
with the sea of resplendence
at the end of the world.
