The restless mind
cannot come to Me.
Elaborations, complications,
seeking the exotic, strange,
information-and-idea gluttony,
the frequent asking
of intellectual questions –
erections of more and more barriers…
Eating much less than you do
will benefit you.
Thinking less than you do
will benefit you.
Speaking less than you do
will benefit you.
Not more experiences –
but experiencing deeply.
Not more sensations –
but clarity.
The restless mind
doesn’t know anything
of living –
but remains its pale imitation,
like a faint light falling
on the decapitated,
still running chicken.
Simplicity and serenity
are among My closest friends.
May you join us soon.
