Opening the Inner Temple of Knowledge

Opening the Inner Temple of Knowledge

The rain falls at the Bay,

yet no single drop claims authorship.

Clouds gather -dense and dark,

but none declares, “I give.”

Oceans rise as vapor,

trees breathe out their offering,

sunlight fuels the cycle—

and yet none stands apart as the doer

Where does money truly flow from?

From the labor of the body?

From the power of thought?

From the ego that claims ownership?

Who is the giver?

Who is the receiver?

The body moves,

the mind conceives,

the ego asserts—

while I simply witness.

Everything resolves in Me-

There is no separate giver,

no separate receiver

all arise as one,

within one, 

from one.

When everything arises

from one indivisible source,

the giver and receiver dissolve;

Action happens, without an actor

Aim for Seva continues,

the window of opportunity

lights up from within,

the door of the inner temple

opens to the truth of knowledge.
