Verse........................................


To the ordinary person, the body of
humanity seems vast.
In truth, it is neither bigger nor smaller
than anything else.
To the ordinary person, there are others
whose awareness needs raising.
In truth, there is no self, and no other.
To the ordinary person, the temple
is sacred and the field is not.
This, too, is a dualism which runs
counter to the truth.

Those who are highly evolved maintain an
undiscriminating perception.
Seeing everything, labeling nothing,
they maintain their awareness
of the Great Oneness.
Thus they are supported by it.
