Seeking ToM

Walking down a shadowy corridor
Flanked by cells imprisoning our bodies

We know not where we go
Except that for many the Dark Cell is the destination

Where the four walls can bound us in
But our minds be free

To break free of our delusions
Of the way of the body

The way of mind is certain
But it is long and difficult

Only a dedicated heart
Can bear the burden of this journey

For the road to seek what is within us
Is fraught with discouragement and setbacks

Except for those that
Dharma leads to this way

For the way of the body
Seek here not

For here be nothing
But the ways of the ancients

To seek the mind of enlightenment
Which has always been there

Just like a dark cloud
Blocks the shining moon

Disperse the cloud
And delusion is but enlightenment
