My imagination tells me
That my God is far, very far.My inspiration tells me
That although my God is very far,I shall be able to reach Him
Someday, somewhere, somehow.My aspiration tells me
That I shall ascend one stepAnd God will descend ninety-nine steps,
And then we shall be togetherAnd become one.
My realisation tells me
That I do not ascend and God does not descend.He just comes out of my dream-reality
AndI just come out of His Reality-dream.
My revelation tells me
That God and I together revealEternity’s cry,
Infinity’s smileAnd
Immortality’s light.My manifestation tells me
That we manifest only two things on earth:The promised land
AndA perfect life.
