Seek to empty your mind of all thoughts
Allow your heart be at peace, rest your soul
Watch the boiling turmoil of the life around you
Contemplate their final return, their peace yet ahead
See the beginnings of all live in the universe
Observe the circle of the return to common origin
The returning to origin as the long sought serenity
In not realizing the origin, you stumble in confusion and sorrow
In the knowing you become tolerant, disinterested, amused
Kindly as a grandmother, dignified as a king.
Immersed in the wonder of the source, you cope
Dealing easily with whatever life brings you
And at the end, when death comes, you are ready
Walking the path of your own circle
Returning to the origin of your beginning
Rejoining to once more become a part of the whole
This, the journey of the great circle
Small steps leading to the serenity of the one
The serenity within you…
