Poem: Visions of Consciousness

O Eternal Light behind the veils of thought,

You silent sun behind the restless brow of man,

Let's descend.

beneath the noisy surface of the mind.

Because we live like wanderers

at the outer limits of our being,

lost in the changing game

of thoughts, reactions, and desires.

Our mind chases after images,

our days pass

in the flow of habits,

and yet deep beneath it all lies

a silent sea of being.

Lead us inward.

Not into flight from the world,

but into the hidden sanctuary,

where the soul is still

awaits her hour of awakening.

Let your inner focus grow.

Let the restlessness of thought subside.

like dust in the evening light.

Open the gates of silence,

not the empty absence,

but that vibrant expanse,

in which consciousness begins,

directly visible.

O secret psychic fire,

you divine spark behind the personality,

You tender flame beneath the layers of ego —

emerge from the depths.

Make our hearts true.

Make our thinking transparent.

Make our lives receptive

for the higher light.

Because behind the surface spirit

An inner being lives there,

as wide as the sky,

Calm as eternity,

clear as a pristine spring.

Lead us there.

Let's not wait any longer

To be prisoners of external movements

but inhabitants of the inner spaces,

in which the soul

It carries its silent sun.

O consciousness, unfolding

through worlds, times, and beings,

the hidden evolution of the divine in matter —

Elevate man

beyond his narrow ignorance.

Let the higher light

not remain distant and unreachable,

but descend

in thought, body, and earth.

Penetrate our words.

Penetrate our relationships.

Penetrate even matter

with your golden awakening.

For the world is not deserted.

It is an unfinished temple.

And deep within man

The hour is still waiting,

in which the eternal

through the finite

wants to become visible.
