The Higher Practice

Misunderstanding is seeing the pain
Understanding is seeing the strength...
Impatience is following the desire
Patience is standing still in faith...
Anger is making the passing dark cloud a storm
Calmness is making the storm a moment of reflection...
Greed is gathering the food for tomorrow and remaining hungry that moment.
The charitable one feeds his self with the joy of giving and stores its strength for tomorrow...
Jealousy is burning the peace within the heart with the thought of hate,
The Content one burns the desireful thoughtful and follows the path of peace...
We are born free...
Then why must we bind
Our souls... Our spirits...
To a life of misery...
Give up O Child
This thought
That desire
This fear...
That passion... that fire...
All will come to you
At the Divine Time
With the Divine Strength...
All you must do
Is wait...
Wait in devotion
And let the pure heart
Make your life
A perfect life...
In which
No misery of
Misunderstanding... Impatience... Anger... Greed...
Jealousy every touches you...
Give up the thought of these O Child
And awaken
Realize and experience
The quiet... simple... sweet... spirit...
Of God within you...
