i feel a deepening urge to search.
a thirst for knowledge,
not of the head,
but deeper.
in my belly.
i'm engulfed with a sense of something...
looming?
many emails written, unsent.
many of them sent, but even still, unfinished.
the necessary things have been clarified.
rightfully so.
sometimes space is needed so that we may grow to fill the space.
sometimes it's wanted so that we feel able to breathe again.
i want this space,
this time,
this opportunity
to grow
my faith.
i am weak, but Thou art strong.
Where do you search me?
I am with you
Not in pilgrimage, nor in icons
Neither in solitudes
Not in temples, nor in mosques
Neither in Kaba nor in Kailash
I am with you O man
I am with you
Not in prayers, nor in meditation
Neither in fasting
Not in yogic exercises
Neither in renunciation
Neither in the vital force nor in the body
Not even in the ethereal space
Neither in the womb of Nature
Not in the breath of the breath
Seek earnestly and discover
In but a moment of search
Says Kabir, Listen with care
Where your faith is, I am there.
