Give yourself to the joy that you are. To know your true nature is to behold the mystery. Even knowing, you will not survive your existence. Do not attach to life. Life is transitory. It does not sustain eternally. Do not care if you are alive or dead. If you are not worried about your existence, then congratulations are in order. You are halfway home. The depth of your existence is limited. It is concealed by darkness, for your knowledge grows from the bottom up. You are planted in the ground of goodness while stretching for the crown in the Tree of Life. That crown is consciousness, and joy is its energy. Even in the darkness of the ground, joy shines to reveal the way. You may shrug and be unresponsive, but joy awaits your awareness. There is pity in the eyes of your beloved as you sit drunk in the moonlight, but one glint off the dark waters can awaken you. You are never abandoned. You might die. You might live. Does it matter? The light burns. Your voice is heard. The dragon has flown. You are without need. Linger no longer. Take flight. Follow the dragon’s wake home.
