the heart of it all
solitude...desolation
core of my beliefs

Number Five it is
of The Eleven Sayings*
years ago received

shown they are each day
in silence becoming clear
in emptiness known

a guide to living
upon this foundation framed
a daily practice

simple acts each day
five do they number
sacred are they held

a mantra...constant
sacred reading and writing
sacred place within

brings sacred living
leading to A Life of One*
three ways of being
