Seek and ye shall be blind*

Seek and ye shall be blind*

Once awhile ago, I believe back in July 2007

I got deep within myself, a door into heaven

Lotus position into a calm stillness state

Followed by my breathing and began to meditate

I reached the core and began in a void to see

Another being was there, Amitabha Buddha looking at me

He gave me a riddle to solve and to see clear

The other side of this riddle was the truth that was near

The muddy water sees clearly, the water is muddy, he jest

It only took a few seconds as my mind came to rest

I said that one's world is already clear but need to be centered

Once all that is their fog, that world of bliss can be entered

But the caveat is that one should remain always still

To keep the brain lobes at balanced as this will fulfill

Then there was another time I went into a deep meditative place

The surrounding area at calm and silence was in the space

It was Amitabha Buddha who returned once again

To ask me another koan as he started to begin

The window is cleaned but it is not cleared

Response was, eyes look forward never turn within to the rear

In this one sees inside and never looks without

There is only an illusion externally with judgment and doubt

Clarity is just that empty space with clear eyes and mind

To only a few will see and to the others peace they will not find

So if you are in a state to look at no more

It is because you did not get to the balanced to open that door

The teachings of this "modern" world do not come from professors or books

The awakened already know of this, it is to see and never look
