The Buddha calls it
"the work to be done",
the living of this life,
the honing down,
the stripping away,
the letting go,
the being of service -
(especially, the being of service).
Slowly, over the years,
our wisdom eye
begins to open.
Open......the eye of beauty.
Open......the eye of joy.
We begin to listen to
an underlying frequency,
tune in to the
collective consciousness,
know that we Know,
that somewhere within,
there is an Observer
who is doing the watching.
As we open
and open and open
deeper into the mystery,
we open the eye of Love,
with which to better make
our imperfect pilgrimage.
