A Poem by Danna Faulds

Let the Mind Be the Mind

Let the mind be the mind. Behind its restless activity, just one layer deeper is stillness, and beneath even that, is an ocean of mystery and truth.

Swim in this eternal sea until you know yourself to be infinity, and bring that knowing back into your day. Why struggle to be what you are already?

Let the mind be the mind, but don't bind yourself to its limited reality. Trust your experience of vastness. Trust the truth that never loses potency or disappears in fear. Let the mind be the mind and identfy not with thought, but silence.
