Humility

h-hilltop-4-postRaise not thine arms and shout that ‘I am He’
Neither that thy mind and voice is greater than all others.
For surely there is none amoung ye, but who canst also raise his voice and crieth out.

h-inner-seeker-within-4-postFor rather would ye seek the One of Silence
A Voice which speaks not to the mortal ear,
Nor heareth not the sound of such a voice – nor the ringing thereof
But in some small way, within thee there is a way
In which a Voice will speaketh much and with the speaking
cometh all things of which thou art.

h-heavenly-vistas-4-post-2And surely then Heaven’s treasures shalt thou knowest
And cometh not the time nor place when this shall cease to be.
