    Ahimsa

    Slowstepping into the Light of Mind...
    dropping away all of this and that -
    letting go of wanting and clinging...
      and when it is all behind me
      I find my Way is not just mine.
    The realization of all suffering as it is
      and this as well is not mine alone.
    The one I pass in the night
    has shed the same tears of joy and pain -
    The one I know as well as i know me
      or the one whose name lies clouded
      by mystery and  by ignorance
      has traveled this way as well...
    Knowing the suffering of this world
    is shared by each and every one of us -
      How can i not feel sympathetic love -
      and strive to do no harm?

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
