Surging river moves ahead
all the way the river along
both banks equally strong…
guiding the course and its flow…
so should be thoughts you allow
discrimination and true dispassion
as the banks to govern the flow
mind pure that keep soul secure…
practice these till you observe
thoughts slow with focus within
concentration turns to contemplation
As the water when remains still
are the banks to direct still?
When no more thoughts to further flow
is there further there to know,
hold something dear, give up ego?
nothing more to see as different
nor to practice to be indifferent
Awareness same in every direction
every situation in all dimension
say the wise as supreme essence,
realize through in Its still presence!

The stillness in stillness is not the real stillness; only when there is stillness in movement does the universal rhythm manifest. - Bruce Lee

Arthur is 90 years old. He's played golf every day since his retirement 25 years ago. One day he arrives home looking downcast.
"That's it," he tells his wife. "I'm giving up golf. My eyesight has got so bad, once I've hit the ball, I can't see where it went."
His wife sympathizes. As they sit down, she has a suggestion:
"Why don't you take my brother with you, and give it one more try."
"That's no good," sighs Arthur. "Your brother is a hundred and three. He can't help."
“He may be a hundred and three," says the wife, "but his eyesight is perfect."
So the next day, Arthur heads off to the golf course with his brother-in-law.
He tees up, takes an almighty swing, and squints down the fairway. He turns to the brother-in-law.
"Did you see the ball?"
"Of course I did!" says the brother-in-law. "I have perfect eyesight."
"Where did it go?" asks Arthur.
"Can't remember!!!!!!"
