Friendship

When you speak ill of another,
Or gossip about what "bugs" you about them,
You are clearly demonstrating for all to see that you have not yet learned
The principle of the Path:
Ahimsa (non violence).

Because this is so evident with each condescending word
And every vomited complaint,
Any quarter-brained person would be quick to see that Friendship with you
Is impossible,
And you cannot be trusted with it.

True Friendship is True Intimacy.
True Intimacy overcomes Separation.
On the other side is God.

And God is all you really want.

Discover what it means to be a true Friend of the Heart,
And God will come closer than near.
