Sit Around The Fire |
Beyond all polarities |
I am |
Let the judgments and opinions of the mind |
Be judgments and and opinions of the mind |
And you exist behind that |
Ah so |
Ah so |
It’s really time for you to see through the absurdity of your own predicament |
You aren’t who you thought you were |
You just aren’t that person |
And in this very lifetime |
You can know it |
Right now |
The real work you have to do |
Is in the privacy of your own heart |
All of the external forms are lovely |
But the real work |
Is your inner connection |
If you’re quiet when you meditat |
If you truly open your heart |
Just quiet your mind |
Opn your heart |
Quit the mind, open the heart |
How do you quiet the mind? |
You meditate |
How do you open the heart? |
You start to love that which you can love |
And just keep expanding it |
You love a tree |
You love a river |
You love a leaf |
You love a flower |
You love a cat |
You love a human |
But go deeper and deeper |
Into that love |
Til you love that |
Which is the source of the light behind all of it |
Behind all of it |
You don’t worship the gate |
You go into the inner temple |
Everything in you |
That you don’t need |
You can let go of |
You don’t need loneliness |
For you couldn’t possibly be alone |
You don’t need greed |
Because you already have it all |
You don’t need doubt |
Because you already know |
The confusion is saying |
«I don’t know» |
But the minute you are quiet |
You find out that in truth |
You do know |
For in you |
You know |
Plane after plane will open to you |
I want to know who I really am |
As if in each of us |
There once was a fire |
And for some of us |
There seem as if there are only ashes now |
But when we dig in the ashes |
We find one ember |
And very gently we fan that ember |
… blow on it |
… it gets brighter |
And from that ember we rebuild the fire |
Only thing that’s important is that ember |
That’s what you and I are here to celebrate |
That though we’ve lived our life totally involved in the world |
We know |
We know that we’re of the spirit |
The ember gets stronger |
Flame starts to flicker a bit |
And pretty soon you realize that all we’re going to do for eternity |
Is sit around the fire |
