Disharmony in this house is deified, Indolence, inertia rule the day, Petty will and egos magnified Hold the ground and turn the seeker away.
And symptomatic of life the world abides The lust for power, visible enmity Unable to see the light our darkness hides, No modicum of common courtesy.
I have seen sincerity and inner fires In some who seek a truth yet unrevealed To the visionless or blind from life's desire's Or those who keep the sacred chamber sealed,
No radiance, no love can penetrate. Absorbed in self and closed to all things new Perpetually confused in mind's estate Inapt to separate the false from true
Or take the leap into an unknown vast That teems with endless possibility. Discard the heavy baggage of the past, See not the world that is but is to be.
