I hold this to be the highest task for a bond between two people:

that each protects the solitude of the other.
~rainer maria rilke

finding the treasure within


are you looking for me?

i am in the next seat.

my shoulder is against yours.

you will not find me in the stupas,

not in indian shrine rooms,

nor in synagogues, nor in cathedrals,

not in masses, not in kirtans,

not in legs winding around your own neck,

nor in eating nothing but vegetables.

when you really look for me,

you will see me instantly –

you will find me in the tiniest house of time.

kabir says: student, tell me, what is god?

he is the breath inside the breath.
