Fifty years to realise
By the simple assumption of silence
That there is no significance
Without connection to the Whole.
That without reference to the Source
All is fact not meaning
All is machine-determined and purposeless
And purpose itself without definition

And a lifetime of thinking
Did not answer the real questions.
And a lifetime of thinking
Did not answer the real questions.

Just one moment to realise
By the simple assumption of silence
That it is impossible
To directly connect completely
With the manifold
That attention can only map to a point
That a mind can only refer to its source
And only through the source to the manfold.
Thus the world is only valued from the Source.
And Wisdom is eternally ready-made in Being.

And a lifetime of thinking
Did not answer the real questions.
And a lifetime of thinking
Did not answer the real questions.
