Real Freedom is

To do only what

You most want

Consider this—

Is it possible

That what all of us

Most want

Is to experience

The Bliss

Of not wanting

Cave of silence

Expands, merges

And breathes deeply

With our present

Is to experience the

State of being called

Not wanting

What a marvelous thing!

Our own unique

Sacred completeness

Has always been within us

Breathe it

Know it

Being it
