HEARING THE ANSWERS MY HEART AND SOUL ARE LOOKING FOR IN THE FOREST OF DREAMS “When you do daily meditation practice, After establishing a foundation of understanding Why the practice is so important, you will Have all kinds of experiences which arise naturally— As you go through the stages of transformation, And as you become more and more free of ego Mind’s deluding influences and you become Who you really are…and then, anything is possible.” —Kalu Rinpoche When I go out Walking through the forest Of my dreams, Along a twisting path Of soft wavy grass, I find a pond of Sparkling pure waters That reflects my face More beautifully than Any ordinary mirror— Which lets my inner Self Appear on it’s surface Beside my smiling head So that I can ask my Heart’s long held questions— And hear the answers Laughingly spoken out loud By the passing wind and The trees that shelter My secret inner world. July 5, 1975 With Kalu Rinpoche in San Francisco,California
