Love,
I received your letter.
How lovingly you insist on my writing something.
And here am I,
Drowned in a deep silence.
I speak,
I work,
But I am steeped in emptiness within.
There,
There is no movement.
Thus,
I seem to be living two lives at one time.
What a drama.
But perhaps all of life is a drama.
And becoming aware of this opens the door to a unique freedom.
That which is in action,
In action,
Stillness in motion,
Eternity in change,
That is truth.
And that is existence.
Real life lies in this eternity.
Everything else is just a stream of dreams.
In truth,
The world is just a dream,
And the question is not whether to live these dreams or not.
One just has to be aware of them.
With this awareness,
Everything changes.
The center moves.
A shift takes place from body to soul.
And what is there,
It cannot be told.
It has never been told.
And it never will be.
There is no other way but to know it for oneself.
Death is known only through dying.
And truth is known only through diving deep within oneself.
May God drown you in this truth.
