Poem Artwork

One famous thinker of antiquity

Found one pretty good remedy

Of all confusions of the world
 
And termed it the Due Mean.
 
 
The other found a universal key
 
Of all confusions of the world
 
And called the living things
 
To have no second thought.
 
 
Another greatest was more persistent

In his pursuit of the eternal purpose

And found at last that a true treatment
 
Was the Idle Wandering in the world.
 
 
The other said that the true means,
 
However paradoxically sounded,
 
Was Non-resistance to evil things
 
To evade escalation of violence.
 

There was another sage of old

Who dared to suppose that

All confusions of the world

Were the result of Selfish Activity.

 
The point is that all worldly affairs

Are entirely constituted of confusions

To be however clearly determined

As the imminent and inescapable for us.

 

That was the reason why the sagely men

Of olden times spoke with one voice of Path

And its Milestones,realization of causality,

Men all go through, alas, with no one excluded.

The law of causality is universal and has shown up in many different disguises in different religions; but the meaning is the same and each one learns it on their own. John

Life presents many possibilities and perils. No one is capable of escaping them all. It is through experience that most of us learn causality.

Multifarious theories and possibilities. Some lessons you learn gradually, and some you learn in a sudden moment, like a flash going off in a dark room. Where an individuals roots are, what they are fully connected to, is the source of their life, their mannerisms, and their expressions. Perhaps smaller systems - especially the human body - are miniature versions of the larger universe. And as the celestial bodies interact so do human beings and their far-reaching philosophies. A thoughtful poetic expression, Alexander. Enjoyed. Peace to you... rlc
