Your mind knows only
How to compile complaints.
Your heart knows only
How to sing oneness-song.

In your outer life
If you long for peace,
Then in your inner life
You must become energy-action.

To accumulate

The smallest act
Of self-offering
Can give us
An ocean-vast joy.

Wings of Air

My heart longs to be dissolved
In wings of air
And fly in the unhorizoned sky.
I long to open up
All my heart-doors
In the delight of my liberation-life.
May my life begin
With the breath of a new hope.
